Question 1

What occurs when light passes into a denser medium?

  • It speeds up
  • It slows down
  • It remains unchanged

💡 Hint: Consider light's behavior as it travels through different densities.

Question 2

True or False: Concave lenses are used to correct farsightedness.

  • True
  • False

💡 Hint: Remember which types of lenses correspond to vision problems.

Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

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.

Question 2

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.
