A plane mirror is held normally to water surface of refractive index . A ray of light is incident at an angle of with the mirror surface. After reflection, the ray is refracted into water. The angle of refraction is, here .




Important Questions on Ray Optics

When a ray of light is incident normally on a surface, then,

A ray of light is incident on the surface of separation of a medium with the velocity of light at an angle and is refracted in the medium at an angle . What will be the velocity of light in the medium?


A light wave enters from air into a medium of refractive index $\frac{4}{3}$. If wavelength of light in air is , then the wave number of light in medium is,

The angle of incidence is found to be twice the angle of refraction when a ray of light passes from vacuum into a medium of R.I. $\mu$. The angle of incidence will be
