- In reflection and refraction of light, all angles are traditionally defined with respect to the perpendicular to the surface/interface at which the light is incident. When a ray of light travels from medium1 (whose refractive index is n1) to medium2 (whose refractive index is n2), it does the following:
- Bends further away from the perpendicular to the surface/interface if n1 > n2.
- Bends toward the perpendicular to the surface/interface if n1 > n2.
- Continues without changing its path (undeflected) even if n1 > n2.

When a light ray travels from a more dense medium to a less dense medium and the light ray intercepts the interface at some angle, the light ray will be deviated away from the normal to the interface. When the angle of the incident light ray is equal or greater than some critical angle , the light ray will be bent away from the normal unit the angle of refraction becomes 90, and total internal reflection occurs. The critical angle, , for two...

Partner: Date Name 11 Snell's Law Introduction When light passes from one material to another it is always bent away from its original path. This process is known as refraction and the change in direction depends on the change in optical density (or refractive index) of the two materials. A larger change in refractive index results in a larger change in angle between incoming and outgoing light beams. A light beam bends closer to the normal in the material with...

A light ray is incident on an interface between materials 1 and 2. The light ray starts in medium 1, and has incident angle θi when it strikes the surface. The light ray refracts and continues on in medium 2, bending away from the normal. (a) Draw the path of the light ray. Label in your picture θi . (b) What is bigger, n1 or n2? Explain using Snell’s law.

water interface (the surface of the lake), it is partly
reflected back into the air and partly refracted
or transmitted into the water. This explains why on the surface of
a lake sometimes you see the reflection of the surrounding
landscape and other times the underwater vegetation.
These effects on light propagation occur because light travels at
different speeds depending on the medium. The index of refraction
of a material, denoted by n, gives an indication of the speed of...
