प्रश्न
The correct sequencing of angle of incidence, angle of emergence, angle of refraction and lateral displacement shown in the following diagram by digits 1, 2, 3 and 4 is:
(a) 2, 4, 1, 3
(b) 2, 1, 4, 3
(c) 1, 2, 4, 3
(d) 2, 1, 3, 4
उत्तर
Angle 2 is angle of incidence. As, it is formed between the incident ray and the normal.
Angle 1 is angle of emergence. As, it is formed between the emergent ray with normal.
Angle 4 is angle of refraction. As, it is formed between the refracted ray and the normal.
3 shows the lateral displacement.
Hence, the correct answer is 2, 1, 4, 3

A student claims that because of atmospheric refraction, the sun can be seen after it has set, and the day is, therefore, longer than if the earth had no atmosphere.
What does the student mean by saying that the sun can be seen after it has set?
State two effects produced by the scattering of light by the atmosphere.
What causes the scattering of blue component of sunlight in the atmosphere?
Assertion: Sky appears blue in the day time.
Reason: White light is composed of seven colours.
