When a beam of light passes form optically rarer medium to optically denser medium,it bends…….the normal.

Derive the relation:- frac(mu_2)(v) - frac(mu_1)(u) = frac(mu_2 - mu_1) (R) when light undergoes refraction fromoptically rarer to optically denser medium at curved surface.

General instructions same as in chapter 1. Assertion:Corpuscular theory fails in explaning the velocities of light in air and water. Reason:According to corpuscular theory, light should travel faster in denser medium than in rarer medium.

A ray of light from a rarer medium strikes a denser medium. The reflected and refracted rays make an angle of 90^@ with each other .the angles of reflection and refraction are r and r' .The critical angle would be

Light from a denser medium I goes to a rarer medium II.When angle of incidence is theta ,the reflected and refraced ray s are perpenciculat to each other .The crtitical angle is:

Find out from table 10.3 of the text-bool, the medius having highest optical density. Also find the midum with lowest optical density?

A spherical refrativng suurface of denser medium (mu=1.5) is placed in a rarer medium (mu=1.3) .for an object lying in rarer medium at 20 cm from the surface,the virtual image is formed at 60 cm in rarer medium.find out the radius fo cruvature of the surface.
