Refraction Through Prism

Science > Physics > Refraction of Light > Refraction Through Prism In this article, we shall study refraction through prism. Prism: A prism is a portion of a transparent medium which is bounded by non-parallel plane surfaces. The two plane surfaces ABCD and AEFD intersecting each other in line AD are called the refracting faces […]

Introduction to Reflection of Light

Science > Physics > Optics > Reflection of Light > Introduction to Reflection of Light When a ray of light approaches a smooth polished surface and the light ray bounces back, it is called the reflection of light. The surface which reflects the light is called a reflecting surface. The ray of light approaching the […]

Introduction to Refraction of Light

Science > Physics > Refraction of Light > Introduction to Refraction of Light Refraction of Light: When light ray travelling in one optically active medium enters another optically active medium, then the light ray deviates from its path. This phenomenon is known as the refraction of light. Laws  of Refraction: The ratio of the sine of […]
