प्रश्न
The refractive index of air with respect to glass is defined: as gµa = sin i/sin r
Write down a similar expression for aµg in terms of angle i and r.

उत्तर
Given: gμa = `Sin "i"/Sin "r"`
Applying the principle of reversibility:
gμa = `Sin "r"/Sin "i"`
[for the same value of ∠i and ∠r for a given pair of media]

What is the refractive index of vacuum
Trace a ray of light incident at 30° on a surface if travelling from air to glass. What is the angle of refraction in this case? (R.I. for glass = 3/2).
A ray of light strikes the surface of a rectangular glass slab such that the angle of incidence in air is
- 0°,
- 45°.
In each case, draw a diagram to show the path taken by the ray as it passes through the glass slab and emerges from it.
