When a ray of light travels from air to glass slab and strikes the surface of separation at 90°, then it …………….
(a) bends towards normal
(b) bends away from normal
(c) passes unbent
(d) passes in zigzag way


A ray of light passes from glass into air. The angle of refraction will be:

(a) equal to the angle of incidence
(b) greater than the angle of incidence
(c) smaller than the angle of incidence
(d) 45° 


How is the reflection of light ray from a plane mirror different from the refraction of light ray as it enters a block of glass?


The refractive index of air with respect to glass is expressed as `""_g μ_a=sin i /sin r`.

  1. Write down a similar expression for aμg in terms of the angles i and r.
  2. If angle r = 90°, what is the corresponding angle i called?
  3. What is the physical significance of the angle i in part (b)?

What is the cause of refraction of light?

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.


Calculate the velocity of light in a glass block of refractive index 1.5. (Velocity of light in air = 3 × 108 m/s)


The speed of light in air is 3 × 108 ms-1. Calculate the speed of light in water. The refractive index of water is 4/3.
