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?
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.
The focal length of a lens is related to its radius of curvature and refractive index by the lensmaker's formula: [ \frac{1}{f} = (n-1) \left( \frac{1}{R_1} - \frac{1}{R_2} \right) ] When the radius of curvature is 0.70 m and the refractive index is 1.8, the focal length can be calculated using this formula.
Refractive index of vacuum is 1.
Refractive Index: 1.4465

To determine if glass is borosilicate, you can perform a test using a polariscope or a refractometer to measure its refractive index. Borosilicate glass has a higher refractive index compared to regular glass, which can help identify it.
His work was based on early work, showing in theory how a lens with an appropriate curvature and refractive index could be overlaid on the cornea to provide refractive correction.
Refractive Index: 1.4465
"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
The formula for calculating a lens' refractive power is as follows:n = (D * R) + 1, where n = refractive power, D = optical power in diopter, and R = lens curvature radius.A lens clock will give you an estimated optical power, d and from there you can work out the curvature radius by using the formula:R = (0.53)/d.A lensometer will give you the actual optical power, D.Input the R and D into the first formula and you will get the lens' refractive index, n.
Boy can find the refractive index of a liquid using a refractometer or by measuring the angle of refraction using a laser pointer. By measuring the critical angle of total internal reflection, he can calculate the refractive index of the liquid. Alternatively, he can use Snell's Law in conjunction with the angles of incidence and refraction to determine the refractive index.
You an verify the angles at which light comes in and out, and use Snell's Law.
