Draw diagrams to show the refraction of light from
- air to glass, and
- glass to air. In each diagram, label the incident ray, refracted ray, the angle of incidence
- and the angle of refraction (r).
A light ray in passing from water to a medium
(a) speeds up
(b) slows down. In each case, give one example of the medium.
The diagram alongside shows the refraction of a ray of light from air to a liquid.
- Write the values of (i) angle of incidence, (ii) angle of refraction.
- Use Snell’s law to find the refractive index of liquid with respect to air.
Select from the following the best experimental set-up for tracing the path of a ray of light through a glass slab:
(A) I
(B) II
(C) III
(D) IV
Using the curve, how do you infer that for given prism, the angle of minimum deviation δmin is unique for the given light?
Why does a fisherman aim at the tail of fish during spearfishing?
A fish swimming in a pond seems nearer than it really is. Explain.
Name two instruments of the total refracting prism in which is used.
A coin placed at the bottom of a beaker appears to be raised by 4.0 cm. If the refractive index of water is 4/3, find the depth of the water in the beaker.
Consider these indices of refraction: glass: 1.52; air: 1.0003; water: 1.333. Based on the refractive indices of three materials, arrange the speed of light through them in decreasing order.
