Trace a ray of light incident at 30° on a surface if travelling from air to glass. What is the angle of refraction in this case? (R.I. for glass = 3/2).

उत्तर

aμg = `sin"i"/sin"r"`
∴ `3/2=(sin30°)/sin"r"`
∴ Sin r = `2/3xxsin30°`
But sin 30° = `1/2`
∴ sin r = `2/3xx1/2`
= `1/3`
∴ sin r = 0.3334
∴ sin r = 19°30′.
Angle of refraction for air to glass = 19°30′.

In your laboratory you trace the path of light rays through a glass slab for different values of angle of incidence (∠i) and in each case measure the values of the corresponding angle of refraction (∠r) and angle of emergence (∠e). On the basis of your observations your correct conclusion is:
(a) ∠i is more than ∠r, but nearly equal to ∠e
(b) ∠i is less then ∠r, but nearly equal to ∠e
(c) ∠i is more than ∠e, but nearly equal to ∠r
(d) ∠i is less than ∠e, but nearly equal to ∠r
