• Refraction of Light

  Definition and description of refraction of light

  Optical density of a medium explained

  3 cases of Refraction discussed:

       CASE 1:  Refraction of Light from opticallly less dense to optically more dense medium   

       CASE 2:  Refraction of Light from opticallly more dense to optically less dense medium   

       CASE 3:  Light entering a medium along the normal

  Examples of Refraction in everyday life discussed and explained:

      Example 1- Bending of a pencil image when placed in a beaker of water

      Example 2: Swimming pool appearing shallower due to refraction of light

  Terms in Refraction explained:

      - Incident Ray

      - Refracted Ray

      - Angle of incidence

      - Angle of Refraction

      - Bending of refracted ray towards the normal

      - Bending of refracted ray away from the normal
