Explanation

$ n = { sin \left( {A + \delta m \over 2 } \right) \over sin {A \over 2 } }$ $ velocity of light in glass = C_{air } \over n $

An equilateral prismdeviates a ray through $ 45 ^\circ $ for two angles of incidence differing by 200. What is the n of the prism?

Explanation

$ \delta = i_1 + i_2 -A $ $ Now, n = { sin i_1 \over sin r_1 } = { sin i_2 \over sin (60 - r_1) } $

A ray of light is incident normally on one of the faces of a prism of apex $ 30 ^\circ $ and $ n = \sqrt 2 $ What is the angle of deviation of the ray ?

Explanation

$ Here i = 0 and r_1 = 0 $ $ Now, A = r_1 + r_2 $ $ n = {sin e \over sin r_2 } $

A veseel of depth t is half filled with oil of refractive index $n_1$ and the other half is filled with water (refractive index $n_2$). The apparent depth of the vessel when viewed from above is

Explanation

.The appartent depth is given by $ I' = { t_1 \over n_1 } + { t_2 \over n_2 } $

A bird in air looks at a fish vertically below it and inside water, $h_1$ is the height of the bird above the surface of water and $h_2$, the depth of the fish below the surface of water. If refractive index of water with respect to air be n, then what is the distance of the fish observed bythe bird ?

Explanation

Appera ht position of fish as seen by bird is $ h_1 + { h_2 \over n } $

Monochromatic light of wave length traveling in a medium of reflactive index $n_1$ euters a denser medium of refractive index $n_2$. What is the wave length in the second medium ?

Explanation

$ \lambda_1 = { c \over n_1 v} and \lambda_2 = { c \over n_2 v } $

Light travels through a glass plate of thickness t and having refractive index n. If C be the velocity of light in vacuum. What is the time taken by the light of travel this thickness of glass ?

You've reached today's free limit of 20 questions. Log in to keep practising for free.
Explanation

n = velocity of light in vacaum /velocity of light in glass plate Time taken = distance / velocity = $ {t \over (c/n) } = {nt \over c } $

A beam of light is converging towards a point I on a screen. A plane parallel plate of glass whose thickness is in the direction of beam = t, refractive index = n is introduced in the path of the beam. The convergence point is shifted by ..........

You've reached today's free limit of 20 questions. Log in to keep practising for free.
Explanation

When a glass plate of thickness t is introduced, then the optical path increases by t/ n . So, the convergence point shifts nears by $ { t - { t\over n } } = t ( 1 -{1 \over n}) $
