उत्तर
A ray of light incident at an angle θ on a refracting face of a prism emerges from the other face normally. If the angle of the prism is 5° and the prism is made of a material of refractive index 1.5, the angle of incidence is 7.5°.
Explanation:
In thin prisms, the distance between the refracting surfaces is ineligible and the angle of prism (A) is very small. Since A = r1 + r2, therefore if A is small then both r1 and r2 are also small, and the same is true for i1 and i2.
A = 5°
μ = 1.5
i2 = 0°
r2 = 0°
r1 + r2 = A
r1 = A - r2 = 5 – 0 = 5°
μ = `(sini1)/(sinrlμ) = (sinil)/(sinrl)`
⇒ `sini1 = μsinr1`
= `1.5 xx sin 5°`
= 1.5 xx 0.087`
= 0.1305
= 7.5°

One day Chetan’s mother developed a severe stomach ache all of a sudden. She was rushed to the doctor who suggested for an immediate endoscopy test and gave an estimate of expenditure for the same. Chetan immediately contacted his class teacher and shared the information with her. The class teacher arranged for the money and rushed to the hospital. On realizing that Chetan belonged to a below average income group family, even the doctor offered concession for the test fee. The test was conducted successfully.
Answer the following questions based on the above information:
(a) Which principle in optics is made use of in endoscopy?
(b) Briefly explain the values reflected in the action taken by the teacher.
(c) In what way do you appreciate the response of the doctor on the given situation?
Swarali has got the following observations while doing an experiment. Answer her questions with the help of observations.
Swarali observed that the light bent away from the normal, while travelling from dense medium to rarer medium. When Swarali increased the values of angle of incidence (i), the values of angle of refraction (r) went on increasing. But at a certain angle of incidence, the light rays returned into the dense medium.
So, Swarali has some questions. Answer them –
a) Name this certain value of ‘i ’. What is the value of ‘r’ at that time ?
b) Name this process of returning of light in dense medium. Explain the process.
