Why can the refracted ray can also be the incident ray?
The refracted ray can coincide with the incident ray when light moves from one medium to another at a 90-degree angle relative to the boundary between the two media. This scenario leads to no bending of the light ray, resulting in the refracted ray following the same path as the incident ray.
Where is the direction of the reflected ray if a ray of light strikes to a mirror?
As the incident ray coincides the normal so the incident angle is 0 degree and angle of incident equals to the angle of reflection so the ray after reflection retraces its orignal path. By mohit agarwal
Reflection from a hard boundary produces what?
a 180 degree phase shift of the incident wave in the reflected wave.
Does the refracted ray bend towards the normal in water or vegetbale oil?
In water, the refracted ray will bend towards the normal, while in vegetable oil, the refracted ray will also bend towards the normal, but to a greater degree compared to water.
What does light do when it travels from one material to another?
When light travels from one material to another, it can be reflected, refracted, or absorbed. The degree to which each of these behaviors occurs depends on the properties of the two materials and the angle at which the light intersects the interface between them.
A wave travelling in air falls on glass plate It is partly reflected and partly refracted The phase difference between reflected and refracted wave is?
The phase difference between the reflected and refracted waves is π radians (180 degrees). This means that the two waves are in opposite phases when they interact with the glass plate.
Why can the refracted ray can also be the incident ray?
The refracted ray can coincide with the incident ray when light moves from one medium to another at a 90-degree angle relative to the boundary between the two media. This scenario leads to no bending of the light ray, resulting in the refracted ray following the same path as the incident ray.
What is angle of incident if the reflected ray is 90 degree to incident ray?
The angle of incident is 45 degrees. The incident and reflected ray have the same magnitude and if the sum of the magnitudes is 90 degrees the incident is 45 degrees.
The angle between a flashlight beam that strikes a mirroe and the reflected beam is 80 degree what is the angle of incident?
80/2 = 40 deg
What is angle of incidence of a ray if the reflected ray is at an angle of 90 degree of the incident ray Verify the answer with diagram?
Call the angle from the incident ray to the normal X. The angle of the reflected ray to the normal also has to be X because the incidence angle and the reflected angle are equal by law of reflection. Since the angle between the reflected and incident ray is 90 degrees: 2*X = 90 So, X = 45 degrees.
What is the angle of incident if the reflected ray is 24 degree to incident ray?
We know angle of incidence = angle of reflection. Hence, angle of incidence will be 24/2 = 12 degrees. (which is also angle of reflection)
Where is the direction of the reflected ray if a ray of light strikes to a mirror?
As the incident ray coincides the normal so the incident angle is 0 degree and angle of incident equals to the angle of reflection so the ray after reflection retraces its orignal path. By mohit agarwal
Which color is most refracted in a 60 degree prism?
Violet
Reflection from a hard boundary produces what?
a 180 degree phase shift of the incident wave in the reflected wave.
Does the refracted ray bend towards the normal in water or vegetbale oil?
In water, the refracted ray will bend towards the normal, while in vegetable oil, the refracted ray will also bend towards the normal, but to a greater degree compared to water.
How do light refract?
when light travels from rarer medium(which has relatively lower density) to a denser medium(which is of relatively higher density) the angle of incident light and refracted light is less than 180 degree(when the angle is considered at the point of incidence) and when the light travels from a denser to a rarer medium the angle will be greater than 180 degree.
What does light do when it travels from one material to another?
When light travels from one material to another, it can be reflected, refracted, or absorbed. The degree to which each of these behaviors occurs depends on the properties of the two materials and the angle at which the light intersects the interface between them.
