Refraction of Light
Part 2: More Dense Medium Into Air
1) Set the refractive index of the upper material (where the light originates) to 1.33 (water) and the lower material (where the light refracts) to 1.00 (air). a) Set the angle of incidence to 0. Record the angle of refraction. b) Set the angle of incidence to 15. Record the angle of refraction. c) Set the angle of incidence to 30. Record the angle of refraction. d) Set the angle of incidence to 45. Record the angle of refraction. e) Record the critical angle.
f) Plot the results on a graph.
2) Set the refractive index of the upper (where the light originates) to 1.50 (glass) a) Set the angle of incidence to 0. Record the angle of refraction. b) Set the angle of incidence to 15. Record the angle of refraction. c) Set the angle of incidence to 30. Record the angle of refraction. d) Set the angle of incidence to 45. Record the angle of refraction. e) Record the critical angle.
f) Plot the results on a graph.
3) Set the refractive index of the upper (where the light originates) to 1.60 (polystyrene; custom). a) Set the angle of incidence to 0. Record the angle of refraction. b) Set the angle of incidence to 15. Record the angle of refraction. c) Set the angle of incidence to 30.
