A ray of light propagating in an isotropic medium with refractive index n varying gradually from point to points has a curvature radius rho determined by the formula (1)/(rho) = (del)/(del N) (In n) , where the derivative is taken with respect to the principle normal to the ray. Derivethis formula, assuming that is such a medium the law of refraction n sin theta = const holds. Here theta is the angle between the ray and the direction of the vector Delta n at a given point.
