One day Chetan’s mother developed a severe stomach ache all of a sudden. She was rushed to the doctor who suggested for an immediate endoscopy test and gave an estimate of expenditure for the same. Chetan immediately contacted his class teacher and shared the information with her. The class teacher arranged for the money and rushed to the hospital. On realizing that Chetan belonged to a below average income group family, even the doctor offered concession for the test fee. The test was conducted successfully.
Answer the following questions based on the above information:
(a) Which principle in optics is made use of in endoscopy?
(b) Briefly explain the values reflected in the action taken by the teacher.
(c) In what way do you appreciate the response of the doctor on the given situation?
Plot a graph between
Angle of incidence versus angle of refraction.
State one factor on which a critical angle for a given pair of media depends. The critical angle for the glass-air interface is 45° for the yellow light. Will it be equal to, less than or greater than 45° for (i) red light, (ii) blue light?
Which one of the following is NOT the correct formula for refractive index of glass w.r.t. air (aμg) (i = angle of incidence, r = angle of refraction)
A ray of light passes through a prism of refractive index `sqrt2` as shown in the figure. Find:

- The angle of incidence (∠r2) at face AC.
- The angle of minimum deviation for this prism.
A given ray of light suffers minimum deviation in an equilateral prism P. Additional prism Q and R of identical shape and of the same material as P are now added as shown in the figure. The ray will now suffer ______.

The angle made by incident ray of light with normal of the reflecting surface is called ______.
State two differences between normal reflection and total internal reflection.
