उत्तर

Angular deviation

Explanation:

A rainbow is created when raindrops that are suspended in the air scatter sunlight. We perceive a rainbow because of the way light refracts when it enters a raindrop, total internal reflection from the rear of the droplet surface, and further refracted out in the atmosphere. So all the given processes, i.e., total internal reflection, refraction, and dispersion, take place in the rainbow formation. Angular deviation of light doesn't occur in the formation of a rainbow.

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.
