Define refraction and state the laws of refraction.
A student traces the path of a ray of light passing through a rectangular glass slab and marks the angle of incidence i, angle of refraction r and angle of emergence e, as shown.

The correctly marked angle(s) is/are
(A) ∠ i only
(B) ∠ e only
(C) ∠ r only
(D) ∠ i and ∠ e
Study the following four experimental set-ups I, II, III and IV for the experiment, "To trace the path of a ray of light through a rectangular glass slab."

Which of the marked set-ups is likely to give best results (P1 and P2 are the positions of pins fixed on the incident ray)?
(A) I
(B) II
(C) III
(D) IV
State the dependence of angle of deviation on the wavelength of light
A ray of light of wavelength 6600 Å suffer refraction from air to glass. Taking \[\ce{_a\mu_g = \frac{3}{2}}\], find the wavelength of light in glass.
How does the angle of minimum deviation produces by a prism change with increase in :
the wavelength of incident light
In the fig. name the ray which represents the correct path of light while passing through a glass block.

A total reflecting equilateral prism can be used to deviate a ray of light through:
What is meant by the refraction of light?
Why upper surface of water contained in a beaker and above eye level appears silvery?
Why is the colour red used as a sign of danger?
Name one main factor on which the direction of bending of a ray of light depends.
What do you understand by the deviation produced by a prism?
A ray of light moves from a rare medium to a dense medium as shown in the diagram below. Write down the number of the ray which represents the partially reflected ray.

The path of a ray of light coming from air passing through a rectangular glass slab traced by four students are shown as A, B, C and D in the figure. Which one of them is correct?
