Raydiagrams of light for convex lens

Ray optics Refraction

Que:  What is Refraction? Or define refraction.
Ans:  Refraction is a phenomenon in which when a light ray/wave travels from one medium to another, velocity of light changes, wavelength changes but frequency remains constant.
 Refractive Index: 



Que: What is Glass Prism?
Ans: Glass Prism is a phenomenon in which a light ray upon passing from the glass prism deviates from the straight line. This deviation is known as angle of deviation. Deviation is different for different colors.  For red it is least and for violet it is maximum. This deviation is the main cause of dispersion.
