1
New cards

when does refraction happen

when the light passes through two medians

2
New cards

why does the light travel slower when it travels through a more denser median h

because there are more particles that then slows down the light, creating refraction.

3
New cards

what is snells low (plus formula)

describes how the light bends when going through two different medians.

n1 sin I = n2 sin r

n1 is the refractive index 1st Median

n2 is the refractive idnerxx 2nd median

sin I is incidence angle

sin r is refractive angle

4
New cards

A ray of light travels from air into glass.

  • Refractive index of air: n1=1.0n1​=1.0

  • Refractive index of glass: n2=1.5n2​=1.5

  • Angle of incidence: i=30∘i=30∘

find the refraction angle

n1 sin I = n2 sin r

1 sin (30) = 1.5 sin R

sin (30) =0.5

0.5 × 1 =0.5

0.5 = 1.5 sin R

0.5 / 1.5 =0.333

sin -1 (0.333) =r

19.5 = r

5
New cards

what is the C in CORMMS for refraction practical

C is Change

It will be the angle of the incidence

6
New cards

What is the O in CORMMS in this practical

organism / material

Block of glass

7
New cards

What is the R in CORMMS in this practical

R is repeat

repeat three times and create average to have reliable data

8
New cards

what is the first M ion the CORMMS in this practical

M is measurement

measuring the angle of the refraction using protractor

9
New cards

What is the second M in the CORMMS in this practical

don’t know

10
New cards

What is the S in CORMMS in the practical

same light source

S is same
