when a ray of light passes from air into glass is the angle of refraction greater or less than the angle of incidence
Answers
What happens when the ray of light passes through two different mediums?
Interacting phenomena take place when the light ray passes through two different mediums. These phenomena take place only due to the different velocity of light in a different medium.
This phenomenon is known as the refraction of light.
When the light passes from one medium of less density to other medium of more density than due to more resistance by more dense medium it bends towards the normal.
As we know glass is more dense than air so provide more resistance to the light ray thats why when travelling from here to class the light bends towards normal.
Due to which angle of refraction is smaller than angle of incidence.
Answer:
Explanation:
When a ray of light moves from a rarer (air) to a denser medium ( glass) it’s refracts towards the normal
So the angle of refraction is lesser than angle of incidence
