Question

stop and Reflect
State whether the following statements are true (T) or false (F). Correct the false statements.
1. A coin is kept in an empty glass container such that it is not visible to you. But if water is poures
the container, the coin becomes visible Twe
2. The first law of refraction states that the angle of incidence, the normal to the point of incidents
and the angle of retraction all lie in the same plane. True
3. A ray of light travelling along the normal also suffers refraction.
4. A swimming pool appears to be shallow than its actual depth due to refraction of light.
5. The speed of light in a medium of higher refractive index is more.​

Answer 1

Answer:

(1) True

(2)True

(3)False

(4)True

(5)False

Explanation:

(1) When water is poured into the container refraction takes place from water to air and therefore we can see the coin.

(2)It's a law

(3)a ray which is perpendicular (along normal) does not suffers refraction

(4)it's because of refraction

(5)The apples of light in a medium of higher refractive index is less

hope it helps u,
