State the dependence of angle of deviation On the wavelength of light
Advertisements
उत्तर
The angle of deviation decreases with an increase in the wavelength of light. Thus, a prism deviates violet light the most and red light the least.

Write a short note on dispersion of light.
Draw a ray diagram to show the refraction of light through a glass slab and mark angle of refraction and the lateral shift suffered by the ray of light while passing through the slab.
Study the following four experimental set-ups I, II, III and IV for the experiment, "To trace the path of a ray of light through a rectangular glass slab."

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

Why do we get a spectrum of seven colors when white light is dispersed by a prism?
A monochromatic ray of light passes from air to glass. The wavelength of light in air is λ, the speed of light in air is c and in glass is V. If the absolute refractive index of glass is 1.5, write down
- the relationship between c and V,
- the wavelength of light in glass.
Observe the figure and write accurate conclusion regarding refraction of light.

In an experiment of finding the refractive index of glass, if blue light is replaced by the red light, how will the refractive index of glass change? Give reason in support of your answer.
Name the phenomenon responsible in the following case:
Apparent bending of a stick in water
The refractive index of air with respect to glass is defined: as gµa = sin i/sin r
Write down a similar expression for aµg in terms of angle i and r.
Draw ray of light bending towards the normal while passing from glass to water. Label your diagrams.
