. A ray of monochromatic light (f = 5.09 × 1014

hertz) in air is incident at an angle of 30.°

on a boundary with corn oil. What is the angle of refraction, to the nearest degree, for this

light ray in the corn oil?

Verified Answer :

Answer:

its 20 degrese

Explanation:

The angle of refraction of light ray in the corn oil is 20°.

What is angle of Refraction?

Angle of refraction is the angle the refracted light ray makes with the normal to the oil-air interface.

Given data:

Angle of incidence = 30°

Analysis:

The refractive index of oil is 1.47.

Using the formula for refractive index(n) = \(\frac{sini}{sinr}\)

1.47 = \(\frac{sin 30}{sin r}\)

1.47(sin r) = sin 30

sin r = \(\frac{sin 30}{1.47}\)

sin r = 0.3401

r = arc sin(0.3401)

r = 19.88° which is approximately 20°
