Interactive Quizzes

Engage in quick quizzes to reinforce what you've learned and check your comprehension.

Question 1

What does an increase in the angle of incidence cause when light enters a prism?

  • It decreases the angle of refraction
  • It increases the angle of deviation
  • It has no effect

πŸ’‘ Hint: Think about how light behaves when it enters different mediums.

Question 2

True or False: The angle of minimum deviation always occurs when the light ray is parallel to the base of the prism.

  • True
  • False

πŸ’‘ Hint: Consider how the light travels through the prism.

Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

A prism has an angle of 45 degrees and a minimum deviation of 25 degrees. Calculate the refractive index of the prism material.

πŸ’‘ Hint: Remember to convert angles into radians if necessary during calculations.

Question 2

In an experiment, the angle of incidence is 30 degrees, and the angle of refraction is measured at 15 degrees. What is the refractive index of the medium?

πŸ’‘ Hint: Look at how Snell’s law provides a way to calculate refractive indexes.
