When does the refraction takes place?

Refraction occurs when light passes from one medium to another (such as air to water), causing the light rays to change direction due to the difference in density of the two mediums. This change in direction results in the bending of light rays.


Does emerald have double refraction?

No, emerald does not exhibit double refraction. It is a type of beryl that is typically a single crystal structure, meaning it has isotropic properties. Double refraction is characteristic of birefringent materials, where light splits into two rays when passing through. However, some other minerals, like calcite, do display this phenomenon.


Does doubling the angle of incidence cause the angle of refraction to double?

No, doubling the angle of incidence itself will not cause a doubling of the angle of refraction.
