In the above diagram light is travelling through different media. It is noted by a scientist that ∠1= ∠3 = ∠4 but ∠2 < ∠1. Which of the following statement would be correct?
Noor, a young student, was trying to demonstrate some properties of light in her Science project work. She kept ‘X’ inside the box (as shown in the figure) and with the help of a laser pointer made light rays pass through the holes on one side of the box. She had a small butter-paper screen to see the spots of light being cast as they emerged.
Her friend noted the following observations from this demonstration:
- Glass is optically rarer than air.
- Air and glass allow light to pass through them with the same velocity.
- Air is optically rarer than glass.
- Speed of light through a denser medium is faster than that of a rarer medium.
- The ratio: sin of angle of incidence in the first medium to the ratio of sin of angle of refraction in the second medium, gives the refractive index of the second material with respect to the first one.
Which one of the combinations of the above statements given below is correct.
