Write the relation between the angle of incidence and the angle of refraction for a medium.
A light ray in passing from water to a medium
(a) speeds up
(b) slows down. In each case, give one example of the medium.
An object is viewed through a glass prism with its vertex pointing upwards. It appears to be displaced upward. Explain the reason.
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.
- In the diagram show the approximate direction of these rays as they emerge out of the block.
- What is the angle of refraction for the ray PB?
`("Take" sin 42° =2/3)`
