Which of the marked set-ups is likely to give best results (P1 and P2 are the positions of pins fixed on the incident ray)?

(A) I

(B) II

(C) III

Light passes through a rectangular glass slab and through a triangular glass prism. In what way does the direction of the two emergent beams differ and why?


How does the angle of minimum deviation produces by a prism change with increase in : 

the refracting angle of prism? 


Fill in the blanks to complete the following sentence 

The refractive index of glass with respect to air is 3/2. The refractive index of air with respect to glass will be ………………. 

 


The critical angle for glass-air is 45° for the light of yellow colour. State whether it will be less than, equal to, or more than 45° for (i) ref light, (ii) blue light? 


Which colour of light travels fastest in any medium except air?


Comment on the statement ‘The refractive index of glass is 3/2.’


The figure shows two prisms A and B. A monochromatic ray of light PO is incident at the face of the prism A. Complete the diagram to show the path of the ray till it emerges out of the prism B.


The diagram shows the path of a ray of light through a rectangular glass block placed in a liquid of uniform density.

Show with the help of a ray diagram the path of the ray when incident ray normally falls on the first surface of the glass block and passes through the block and the liquid.
