Law of Reflection: The angle of Incidence is equal to the angle of reflection. Watch on Love of Reflection augh of widence = angle of reflection. B H₂- 6+4+₂+180" Part 1: Two mirrors As shown in the diagram below, two mirrors meet at an angle, #2140". The red lines indicate the path a light ray has taken with , 26. Determine ₂. 0₂5 ingles Penan Part 2: Giraffe As shown below, the eyes of a giraffe are a distance H₁5.31 m above the ground and a distance L₁ 2.5 m in front of a vertical plane mirror (green in the diagram-Ignore its thickness). The bottom edge of the mirror is a distance H₂0.73 m above the floor. The distance Lg is the closest point on the floor that the giraffe can e an see in the mirror. The red lines are the path that light rays from that closest point take to get to the giraffe's eyes. Determine L₂ 6₂= L₁
Refraction of Light
Refraction is a change in the direction of light rays when they travel from one medium to another. It is the bending of light when it goes through different media.
Angle of Refraction
Light is considered by many scientists to have dual nature, both particle nature and wave nature. First, Particle nature is one in which we consider a stream of packets of energy called photons. Second, Wave nature is considering light as electromagnetic radiation whereas part of it is perceived by humans. Visible spectrum defined by humans lies in a range of 400 to 700 nm wavelengths.
Index of Refraction of Diamond
Diamond, the world’s hardest naturally occurring material and mineral known, is a solid form of the element carbon. The atoms are arranged in a crystal structure called diamond cubic. They exist in a huge variety of colours. Also, they are one of the best conductors of heat and have a very high melting point.
