Question

What happens to a ray of light when it travels from one medium to another having equal refractive indices?

Answer 1

• When a ray of light when it travels from one medium to another having equal refractive indices, there is no refraction taken place and hence there is no change of path of the light rays.. The light rays passes straight.. Here, the angle of incidence is equal to angle of reflection.. The light rays reflects..

Hope this helps..

Mark as the brainlliest answer..

Answer 2

Answer:

The light goes straight through both the media.

Explanation:

• There is no bending of light.
• Since the refractive indices are the same in both media, the speed of light does not change while travelling across both media.
• The speed of light remains the same when travelling from one medium through the other if the refractive indices of both media are the same.
• The ray of light does not bend when crossing the interface of both media
• When a wave travels from one medium to another, it is said to be refracted in physics.
• The wave's alteration in speed or a modification of the medium may be the reason for the redirection.

The ray of light travels straight through the media without bending.
