Refraction is a change in the direction of light rays when they travel from one medium to another. It is the bending of light when it goes through different media.

Angle of Refraction

Light is considered by many scientists to have dual nature, both particle nature and wave nature. First, Particle nature is one in which we consider a stream of packets of energy called photons. Second, Wave nature is considering light as electromagnetic…

* Prism total reflection What must be the minimum value of the refractive index of the prism shown in Figure P22.33 in order that light is totally reflected where indicated? Will some of the light make it out of the top surface? Explain.

Solution Summary: The author explains that some light rays will escape the prism through its top surface because the incident angle is smaller than the critical angle.
