Chapter 1 Refraction of Light 1. Reflection always occurs when a ray hits any surface such that: a. The incident [SI] ray and the reflected ray [IR) lie on the same side with respect to the surface. b. The incident ray [SI] and the reflected ray [IR) lie on opposite sides with respect to the Normal (NI). c. The angle of incidence (i) is always equal to the angle of reflection (r). R R N N Reflected ray Reflected ray Normal (Perpendicular to the surface at the

Light that takes a path from point A to point B will take the same reverse path in going from point B to point A, even if reflection or refraction is involved. So if you can’t see the driver, the driver can’t see you. 13. In spearing a fish with a spear, you should aim below the apparent position of the fish to account for the refraction of the light that you see coming from

This experiment seeks to demonstrate the law of reflection - the angle of incidence is equal to the angle of reflection when measured from the normal. Equipment Single slit raybox with power supply Paper Ruler Protractor Sharp Pencil Plane mirror Support for mirror (e.g. wooden block with a groove in, or plasticine) Method Draw a line on the paper. Place the mirror on the line and support it so it does not move. Shine the beam from the raybox towards the mirror. Use the pencil

incidence compares with the angle of reflection by always sharing the exact same measurement. For each trial performed, the incident ray would be directed towards the mirror and the reflected ray would match the incidence ray but would reflect the other way. For example, when trial 1 was performed and the angle of incidence was aimed on the plane mirror, its angle equaled 45°. The angle reflected off the mirror in the same angle which also equaled 45°. This reflection came off a smooth surface which was

M. C. Escher, one of the 20th century leading artists, is best-known with his impressive optical illusions. Especially in “Impossible constructions” collection, he did excellent works in playing various visual tricks on those artworks that profoundly confuse the observers at the first sign. The piece of art “ Relativy” depicts an unrealistic interior space with the stairs that never go the same way, the floors, doors and balconies are put on every sides of the rooms in this view. There are also
