State whether light slows down or speeds up in the following cases :
Light going from water to air.
A light ray suffers reflection and refraction at the boundary in passing from air to water. Draw a neat labelled ray diagram to show it.
The speed of light in air is 3 × 108 m s-1. Calculate the speed of light in glass. The refractive index of glass is 1.5.
An obliquely incident light ray bends at the surface due to a change in speed when passing from one medium to another. The ray does not bend when it is incident normally. Will the ray have a different speed in the other medium?
Compare the speeds of light of wavelength 4000 Å (i.e. violet light) and 8000 Å (i.e. red light) in vacuum.
Materials that are not able to allow light to pass through, are called ______ material.
Define opaque material.
The speed of light decreases in a denser medium, light bends towards the normal.
Light travels a distance of '10x' units in time 't1' in vacuum and it travels a distance of 'x' units in time 't2' in a denser medium. Using this information answer the question that follows:
'Light covers a distance of '20x' units in time 't1' in diamond'. State true or false.
