Aim - Measurement of the
refractive index n of a perspex block. |
Instructions |
|
|
|
- The angle of incidence qa
of the ray of light is 10o. Turn on the protractor
and measure the corresponding angle of refraction qb .
|
- Increase the incident angle in 5o steps and in each case measure the
refracted angle.
|
- Use an appropriate format to show the relationship between sin qa
and sin qb
|
- Determine the refractive index of the perspex block.
