A ray of light travels from a denser to a rarer medium. After refraction, it bends away from the normal. When we keep increasing the angle of incidence, the angle of refraction also increases till the refracted ray grazes along the interface of two media. The angle of incidence for which it happens is called critical angle. If the angle of incidence is increased further the ray will not emerge and it will be reflected back in the denser medium. This phenomenon is called total internal reflection of light.

A point source of light is placed at the bottom of a tank filled with water, of refractive index µ, to a depth d. The area of the surface of water through which light from the source can emerge is:

पर्याय

  • `(π"d"^2)/(2(µ^2 - 1))`

  • `(π"d"^2)/((µ^2 - 1))`

  • `(π"d"^2)/(sqrt2 sqrt(µ^2 - 1))`

  • `(2π"d"^2)/((µ^2 - 1))`

MCQ

उत्तर

`bb(("πd"^2)/((µ^2 - 1)))`

Explanation:

r = d tan θc

sin θc = `1/µ`

∴ cos θc = `sqrt(1 - 1/µ^2)`

∴ r = `"d"(1//µ)/(sqrt(µ^2 - 1)/µ) = "d"/sqrt(µ^2 - 1)`

∴ area = πr2 = `(π"d"^2)/(µ^2 - 1)`

Which of the following methods can be used to measure the speed of light in laboratory?


In an experiment to measure the speed of light by Fizeau's apparatus, following data are used: Distance between the mirrors = 12.0 km,
Number of teeth in the wheel = 180.
Find the minimum angular speed of the wheel for which the image is not seen.


In an experiment with Foucault's apparatus, the various distances used are as follows:
Distance between the rotating and the fixed mirror = 16 m
Distance between the lens and the rotating mirror = 6 m,
Distance between the source and the lens = 2 m.
When the mirror is rotated at a speed of 356 revolutions per second, the image shifts by 0.7 mm. Calculate the speed of light from these data.
