Four students P, Q, R and S traced the path of a ray of light passing through a glass slab for an angle of incidence 40° and measured the angle of refraction. The values as measured them were 18°; 22°; 25° and 30° respectively. The student who has performed the experiment methodically is

(A) P

(B) Q

(C) R

(D) S


State the dependence of angle of deviation On the refractive index of the material of the prism.


How is the angle of emergence related to the angle of incidence when prism is in the position of minimum deviation? Illustrate your answer with help of a labelled diagram using an equilateral prism? 


The refractive index of glass is 1.5. From a point P inside a glass block, draw rays PA, PB and PC incident on the glass air surface at an angle of incidence 30°, 42° and 60° respectively.

  2. What is the angle of refraction for the ray PB? 

`("Take" sin 42° =2/3)`

State the relation between the refractive index μ and the velocity of light (vm) in that medium.
