एका वाक्यात उत्तर

उत्तर

Refraction is the bending of light at the surface of separation, which takes when it passes from one optical medium to another optical medium with different optical densities.

On the basis of the experiment, "To trace the path of a ray of light through a rectangular glass slab", students of a class arrived at which one of the following conclusions?

(A) Angle of incidence is greater than the angle of emergence.

(B) Angle of emergence is smaller than the angle of refraction.

(C) Emergent ray is parallel to the refracted ray.

(D) Incident ray and emergent ray are parallel to each other.


A student very cautiously traces the path of a ray through a glass slab for different values of the angle of incidence (∠i). He then measures the corresponding values of the angle of refraction (∠r) and the angle of emergence (∠e) for every value of the angle of incidence. On analysing these measurements of angles, his conclusion would be

(A) ∠i > ∠r  > ∠e

(B) ∠i = ∠e  > ∠r

(C) ∠i < ∠r  < ∠e

(D) ∠i = ∠e  < ∠r


Why is the ratio of the velocities of light of wavelengths 4000Å and 8000Å in vacuum 1: 1?


Observe the following figure and answer the questions given under it:

1) How many times does refraction take place in the above figure?

2) What happens to the ray of light when it passes from air to glass?

3) What happens to the ray of light when it passes from glass to air?

4) What are the rays AB and CD in the figure called?

5) Define refraction.
