In the glass slab experiment, a student ...

In the glass slab experiment, a student measures the angle of incidence `(angle i)` in air and finds it to be `40^(@)`. He also measured the corresponding angle of refraction as well as the angle of emergence for this ray of light but also their record. The most likely record of readings for the angle of incidence and angle of emergence wil be :

A

`angle r = 40^(@)` and `angle e = 50^(@)`

B

`angle r gt 40^(@)` and `angle e = 50^(@)`

C

`angle r = 50^(@)` and `angle e = 40^(@)`

D

`angle r lt 40^(@)` and `angle e = 40^(@)`

In an experiment to study the refraction of light through a rectangular glass slab, a student measured the angle of incidence, angle of refraction and the angle of emergence, The student lost the reading of angle of incidence but noted the readings of angle of refraction to be 35^(@) and angle of emergence to be 65^(@) . The angle of incidence is likely to be :

A student very cautiously traces the path of a ray through a glass slab for different values of the angle of incidence (/_i) . He then measures the corresponding values of the angle of refraction (/_r) and the angle of emergence (/_e) for every value of the angle of incidence. On analysing these measurements of angles, his conclusion would be

A ray of light travels from air to glass . It is found that the angle of refraction is half the angle of incidence . Then the angle of refraction is given by
