reflection and refraction of light optics

IO incident ray OR l reflected ray OR refracted ray The diagram shows how the light gets refracted when it is traveling from one optical medium to another. Like reflection, refraction of light takes place according to c..

Introduction - In the previous chapter we have seen how light gets reflected when it is incident on a surface. Now let us see what happens when a ray of light travelling in one medium enters another medium of different optical density. It is a matter of commo..

Refraction of Light - Let us now see what happens when a ray of light is incident on the boundary separating the two media having different densities. A part of the light gets reflected and rest of the light changes its direction as it ent..

Light not only bounces off surface it goes through some of them often slowing down and changing direction in the process called refraction. It occurs at the point where light travels from one medium to another of different density. Refraction produces mirages..
