- 7:47 a). You make of plot of sin(0¡nside) versus sin(0outside). What is the index of refraction for the prism if the slope of the best fit line is 0.647 ± 0.004? b) . If your lab partner calculates the index of refraction of a medium to be 1.3 ± 0.6, determine the speed of light as it travels through the medium. Assume the speed of light in vacuum is 3x10® m/s. c) You now orient the prism with respect to the light as shown below. Which color will get refracted the most? Least? Explain. (Top View)Part of your refraction experiment is on performing a total internal reflection. You measure the critical angle for some oil as 40o. Therefore the refractive index of that oil should be Group of answer choices 2.02 1.56A ray of light travels with a speed of 2×10^8m/s in a medium X and if its speed is halved in another medium Y .calculate the refractive index of medium X to Y and Y to X?
- Air has an index of refraction of 1.00. Water has an index of refraction of 1.33. Consider a pool of water that is perfectly calm and 3.21 meters deep. A ray of light (or a laser beam, if you like) enters the water, refracts, and ultimately hits the bottom of the pool. Find the distance between the point where the light enters the water and the point where the light hits the bottom of the pool if the angle between the ray in air and the surface of the pool is 46.4 degrees. Answer in meters.Use Fermat’s principle to fifind the path followed by a light ray if the index of refraction is proportional to the given function x+1Fiber optic cables, such as those used for high-speed communication (Internet & phone services), transmit signals as light pulses through transparent cables. When viewed from one of the ends, you can see these light pulses, but when viewed from the side you can't. Using your knowledge about reflection and refraction, explain how this might work. Is there some physical limitation where this might not work?
