Optics IS&F ch 22Chapter 35: Light Rays, Reflection, Refraction

 

 

1.  Open 15.1 Reflection & Refraction in Activphysics 2.

 

2.  Draw a figure to illustrate the relationship between waves and rays.  Explain your diagram in complete sentences.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

3.  Refraction of light from one medium to another is caused by light changing speed from one medium to the next.  What is definition of the index of refraction?

 

 

 

 

 

 

4.  After you do Question 1 and check your answer with the Advisor, change the index of refraction of the lower medium to n = 2, and determine the speed of light in this new medium.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

5.  There is a relationship between the angle of incidenceu1 and the angle of reflection u1Õ known as the law of reflection.  After playing around with the simulation, state what you think that law is.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

6.  State SnellÕs Law.
