Does refractive index vary with the angle of incidence?
No. The refractive index is an absolute measure that determines by how much the angle of incidence is different from the angle of reflection.
What is the refractive index of vacuum?
Refractive index of vacuum is 1.
What is the standart refractive index of cyclohexene?
Refractive Index: 1.4465
The refractive index of water is 43 and for glass it is 32 with respect to airwhat is the refractive index of glass with respect to air?
"The refractive index of water is 4 / 3" means the refractive index of water with respect to air. "The refractive index of glass is 3 /2" means the refractive index of glass with respect to air. You change the question as ," what is the refractive index of glass with respect to water? The answer is it is the ratio of refractive index of of glass with respect to air to the refractive index of water with respect to air =( 3/2) divided by( 4/3) = 1.125
What is the index of refraction of sugar?
Crystaline sugar (sucrose) has a refractive index of around 1.56. Sugar solutions can have refractive indices greater than this. Note, that the refractive index of a substance can even be determined for opaque substances. This is because the RI also determines reflective properties. So by measuring the amount of light reflected by light shining on a polished sample at a given angle, a refractive index can in principle be obtained.
What determines the focal length of two sides of a lens?
The focal length of a lens is determined by the curvature of its surfaces and the refractive index of the material the lens is made of. A lens with a shorter focal length will have more curved surfaces or a higher refractive index. Conversely, a lens with a longer focal length will have less curved surfaces or a lower refractive index.
Viva questions regarding refractive index of prism?
What is a prism and how does it relate to the refractive index? Explain how the refractive index of a prism affects the bending of light. How can you experimentally determine the refractive index of a prism?
What is refractive index of kerosene?
The absolute refractive index of kerosene is 1.39 .
How calcualate the refractive index of petrol?
The refractive index is determined experimentally.
What is the refractive index of diamonds?
The refractive index of diamonds is approximately 2.42. This high refractive index contributes to the diamond's brilliance and sparkle when light enters and exits the stone.
What medium has higher refractive index?
Generally, denser mediums have higher refractive index. For example, water has a higher refractive index compared to air. Similarly, glass has a higher refractive index than water.
How do you find the refractive index of groundnut oil?
To find the refractive index of groundnut oil, you can use a refractometer designed for measuring the refractive index of liquids. Place a drop of groundnut oil on the refractometer's prism and then measure the refractive index value displayed on the scale. This will give you the refractive index of groundnut oil.
