The law of refraction was first accurately described by Ibn Sahl, of Baghdad, in the manuscript On Burning Mirrors and Lenses (984).it was then properly formulated by snell

Was the law of refraction m given Snell?

Yes, the law of refraction was given by Snell, also known as Snell's Law. It states that the ratio of the sines of the angles of incidence and refraction for a wave hitting a boundary between two different mediums remains constant.

The law of reflection states that the angle of incidence is equal to the angle of refraction?

The law of reflection states that the angle of incidence is equal to the angle of REFLECTION. Refraction is an entirely different phenomenon and has its own law.


The relationship between the angle of incidence and the angle of refraction is known as law?

Snell's Law describes the relationship between the angle of incidence and the angle of refraction for light passing through different mediums. It states that the ratio of the sine of the angle of incidence to the sine of the angle of refraction is constant for a given pair of media.

What is the angle or refraction when the angle of incidence is 40degrees?

That depends on the substances where the refraction occurs. The relationship between the angles, and the index of refraction of both materials, is given by Snell's Law.


State law of refraction?

The law of refraction, also known as Snell's Law, states that the ratio of the sine of the angle of incidence to the sine of the angle of refraction is a constant for any two media. Mathematically, this can be expressed as n1sinθ1 = n2sinθ2, where n1 and n2 are the refractive indices of the two media and θ1 and θ2 are the angles of incidence and refraction, respectively.
