State the conditions required for total internal reflection of light to take place
What is total internal reflection?
Total internal reflection occurs only when a ray of light passes from a ______ medium to a ______ medium.
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.
If a light ray does not undergo, refraction at the boundary between two media, the angle of incidence is:
How are critical angles related to the refractive index of the medium?
A ray of light is incident as a normal ray on the surface of separation of two different mediums. What is the value of the angle of incidence in this case?
A spherical marble, of refractive index 1.5 and curvature 1.5 cm, contains a tiny air bubble at its centre. Where will it appear when seen from outside?
A light is entering from one medium refractive index `("RI" =5/3)` to another medium at an angle 30°. The angle of refraction for other medium is sin-1 `(5/6)`. then the increase in angle of incidence is ______ such that the ray of light reflected back into the same medium.
The angle made by incident ray of light with normal of the reflecting surface is called ______.
