Monachromatic light of wavelength 589 nm is incident from air on a water surface. If 1 for water is 1.33, find the wavelength, frequency and speed of the refracted light.

After refraction, it bends away from the normal, When we keep increasing the angle of incidence, the angle of refraction also increases till the refracted Tay grazes along the interference of two media. The angle of incidence for which it happens is called critical angle. If the angle of incidence is.increased further the ray will not emerge and it will be reflected back in the denser medium. This phenomenon is called total internal reflection of light. (i) A ray of light travels from a medium into water at an angle of incidence of 18° The refractive index of the medium is more than that of water and the critical angle for the interface between the two media is 20° Which one of the following figures best represents the correct path of the ray of light?

Velocity of light in glass is 2 x 10° m/s and in air is 3 x 10° m/s. If the ray of light passes from glass to air, calculate the value of critical angle.

A ray of light falls on a transparent sphere with centre C as shown in the figure. The ray emerges from the sphere parallel to the line AB. Find the angle of refraction at A if refractive index of the material of the sphereis /3. Here, question 18 (i) to (v) is a case study base question of 5 marks. 18. Two transparent media of refractive indices n, anda, are separated by a spherical transparent surface. The rays o/ light incident on the surface.get refracted into the medium on the other side. The laws of refraction are valid at each point of the spherical surface. A lens is a transparent optical medium bounded by two surfaces, at least one of which should be spherical. The focal length of a lens is determined by the radii of curvature (R, and R;) of its two surfaces and the refractive index(n) of the medium of the lens with respect to the surrounding medium. Depending on R, and R2 a lens behaves as a diverging or a converging lens. The ability of a lens to diverge or converge a beam of light incident on it define its power, (i) An object is placed at the point B as shown in the figure.
