Copy data table pg 559Skip the graphing part but calculate the ratio of the

sin of angle Incidence to the sin of the angle of refraction for each trial

Finish this statement:The ratio of the sin of angle of incidence to the sin of angle of refraction was the same or different for all three trials.

Do now:1. A flagpole is casting a shadow as shown in the diagram. Which of the following would make the length of the shadow shorter?a) Increasing the height of the flagpole.b) Moving the Sun in the vertical direction “up”.c) Making the Sun brighter.d) The Sun in the vertical direction “down”.2. The diagram below shows a light ray striking a concave mirror parallel to the principal axis. Point C is the center of curvature of the mirror, and point F is the principal focus. The light ray will reflect through which point?

3. If an image distance is negative, is it real or virtual?4. If an object height is – is it real or virtual?

Let’s look at the data you gathered last week from 4 groups

3) 32o 20o

4) 45o 27o

For each data set, divide the sini by the sinr:

CLO:SW define refraction, Dispersion, and index of refraction, and Snell’s law. Being able to identify, write out and solve problems involving the application of Snell’s Law.

Law of Refraction(Snell’s Law)

Defined:

The index of refraction of a material is equal to the ratio of the sin of the angle of incidence to the sin of the angle of refraction.

Equation:

n= sini

sinr

Take a break, and put down your pencil

ni sini = nr sinr

My favorite equation to say out loud

Snell’s Law w/ a bit more detailni sini = nr sinr

ni = Index of refraction of incident mediumnr = Index of refraction of substance light enterssini = sin of the angle of incidencesinr =sin of the angle of refraction

(if the incident medium is air ni is 1)Therefore:

nr = sini / sinr So, as light travels from one medium to another we use Snell’s law:

ni sini = nr sinr

Law of Refraction(Snell’s Law)

Defined:

The index of refraction of a material is equal to the ratio of the sin of the angle of incidence to the sin of the angle of refraction.

Equation:

In a vacuum or air
