Explanation Given Info: The radius of a transparent cylinder is 2.00 m , the distance between the incoming ray and the outgoing ray is 2.00 m . The diagram that represents a transparent cylinder having a mirrored surface in its right half as shown in figure. Figure (1) From the figure above in triangle Δ P S C , sin θ = ( d / 2 ) R Rearrange the above expression for the θ . θ = sin − 1 ( ( d / 2 ) R ) Substitute 2.00 m for d and 2.00 m for R in above equation to find θ . θ = sin − 1 ( ( 2.00 m / 2 ) 2.00 m ) = 30 ° Th path must be symmetric about the centerline C Q of the cylinder if the emerging ray is parallel to the incident ray. The triangle Δ P Q C is an isosceles triangle so the θ 3 and θ 1 are equal because angle opposite to equal sides are equal. θ 3 = θ 1 The angle θ and θ 2 makes an linear pair. So the sum of both of them is 180 ° . Write the expression for the angle θ and θ 2 . θ + θ 2 = 180 ° θ 2 = 180 ° − θ Write the expression for the angle θ 1 , θ 2 and θ 3 for a triangle Δ P Q C in which the sum of all the angles of the triangle is 180 °

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…
