Quiz No. 2

A man 2.0 m tall wishes to see his full length in a plane mirror. The minimum length of mirror that he must buy is

• A 2.5 m • B 2.0 m • C 1.25 m • D 1.0 m

Page 5: Optics Reflection, Refraction &  Total Internal Reflection

Ans• D. 1:2 ratio between portion of mirror required to view

the image and the height of the object is observed.

What’s Wrong Here?• Can you spot 3 subtle distortions of reality in this painting?

(Painting: A Bar at the Folies-Bergere)

Page 7: Optics Reflection, Refraction &  Total Internal Reflection

3 Subtle Distortions1) Note the bottles at the left. Manet painted their reflections in the

mirror but misplaced them, painting them farther toward the front of the bar than they should be.

2) Note the reflection of the women. Since your view is from directly in front of the woman, her reflection should be behind her, with only a little of it ( if any) visible to you. Yet Manet painted her reflection well off to the right.

3) Note the reflection of the man facing her. He must be you! Because reflection shows that he is directly in front of the woman, and thus he must be the viewer of the painter. You are looking into Manet’s work and seeing your reflection well off to your right. The effect is errie because it is not what we expect from a painting or from a mirror.

If you were that “disabled” Archer Fish

• If you are an Archer Fish, born without the natural talent of “solving the physics of refraction”, what would you do to compensate your lack of talents?

• Hint…think physics….you do have a way out…

Optical Density

• Like any wave, the speed of a light wave is dependent upon the properties of the medium.

• In the case of an electromagnetic wave, the speed of the wave depends upon the optical density of that material.

• The optical density of a medium is not the same as its physical density.

• The more optically dense which a material is, the slower that a wave will move through the material.

Page 21: Optics Reflection, Refraction &  Total Internal Reflection

Refractive Index (η)

• One indicator of the optical density of a material is the refractive index (η) of the material.

• It is a number which indicates the number of times slower that a light wave would be in that material than it is in a vacuum.

• A vacuum is given an η value of 1.0000.

Page 22: Optics Reflection, Refraction &  Total Internal Reflection

Refractive Index• Material• Index of Refraction• Vacuum 1.0000 <--lowest optical density• Air 1.0003 • Ice 1.31 • Water 1.333 • Ethyl Alcohol 1.36 • Plexiglas 1.51 • Crown Glass 1.52 • Light Flint Glass 1.58 • Dense Flint Glass 1.66 • Zircon 1.923 • Diamond 2.417 • Rutile 2.907 • Gallium phosphide 3.50 <--highest optical density

Total Internal Reflection

• When light ray hits the glass block at a certain angle of incidence, the eye cannot see the light ray.

Page 43: Optics Reflection, Refraction &  Total Internal Reflection

Total Internal Reflection

• The maximum possible angle of refraction is 90-degrees.• Total internal reflection (TIR) is the phenomenon which

involves the reflection of all the incident light off the boundary. TIR only takes place when both of the following two conditions are met:

1. the light is in the more dense medium and approaching the less dense medium.

2. the angle of incidence is greater than the so-called critical angle.

Page 44: Optics Reflection, Refraction &  Total Internal Reflection

Quiz No. 11

• For each combination of media, which light ray (A or B) will undergo total internal reflection if the incident angle is gradually increased?

Page 45: Optics Reflection, Refraction &  Total Internal Reflection

Ans

• Practice A: Light ray A is in the more dense medium and it will be the one which will undergo TIR.

• Practice B: Light ray A is in the more dense medium and it will be the one which will undergo TIR.

Critical Angle (c)

Page 47: Optics Reflection, Refraction &  Total Internal Reflection

Quiz No. 12

• Suppose that the angle of incidence of a laser beam in water and heading towards air is adjusted to 50-degrees.

• Use Snell's law to calculate the angle of refraction?

Page 48: Optics Reflection, Refraction &  Total Internal Reflection

Ans

• Good luck!

• This problem has no solution. The angle of incidence is greater than the critical angle, so TIR occurs. There is no angle of refraction.

Page 49: Optics Reflection, Refraction &  Total Internal Reflection

Quiz No. 13

• Some optical instruments, such as periscopes and binoculars use trigonal prisms instead of mirrors to reflect light around corners. Light typically enters perpendicular to the face of the prism, undergoes TIR off the opposite face and then exits out the third face.

• Why do you suppose the manufacturer prefers the use of prisms instead of mirrors?

Page 50: Optics Reflection, Refraction &  Total Internal Reflection

Ans

• A prism will allow light to undergo total internal reflection whereas a mirror allows light to both reflect and refract.

• So for a prism, 100 percent of the light is reflected. But for a mirror, only about 95 percent of the light is reflected. For these reasons, a prism will produce a brighter image due to the greater percent of light being reflected.
