Challenge Problems

Push your limits with advanced challenges

Challenge 1 Hard

If a light ray enters a medium with a higher refractive index from air, at an angle of 30 degrees to the normal, calculate the angle of refraction using Snell's Law if the refractive index of air is 1 and that of the new medium is 1.5.

💡 Hint: Use the sine function and ratios to find the angle.

Challenge 2 Hard

If a person is nearsighted and can only see objects clearly within 20 cm, suggest a lens type and describe how it corrects their vision.

💡 Hint: Think about how light needs to be adjusted for different distances.
