In this video I will show you how to find the angle of refraction when the light ray passes through a prism.

Thank you so much for these videos! If you take a look at 4:03 in the video, I think a simpler way to describe that angle is as follows: -we know theta1 is 45 degrees -theta1 and the angle opposite to it are...well "opposite angles" therefore they are equal -the angle we are interested in finding is simply the opposite angle - theta2 :) Thanks again for your videos, you're an amazing lecturer. I especially like all the little hints and explanations you do, my professors would simply assume we knew ALL math we ever used in physics and they would PURELY teach physics. I like how you actually EXPLAIN how you find your angles and such, it really helps!

So to find an angle at theta 4, you need to work sequentially from the theta 1 angle first using Snellen's law and assisted by triangle formulas.

ajarshiddiq7283 Yes you are correct. You start at the entry point, determine the refracted angle at the first entry and then use geometry to determine the angle of incidence at the second boundary.

Hello Michel, I was wondering if it matters whether you use 1.5 or 1.6 as the index of refraction for glass. I saw that you used 1.6 in the previous example but for this one you used 1.5
@MichelvanBiezen
@MichelvanBiezen 8 жыл бұрын
+Orlando Castillo The index of refraction for glass is not a specific constant, but depends on the type of glass. It varies between 1.5 and 1.6 and also changes with the different colors of light.

Could you please explain how you knew that the angle of incident light in n1 was 'parallel' with the normal at the n3-n4 boundary? Do you assume that this is a right angled prism? How do you know that theta3 = 45' - theta2? I apologise if I've misunderstood a step.

I should have listened to the end. You eventually mentioned at 7:00 that you assumed this was a right angled prism.

This is very helpful but I think the answer to the last refraction angle is 25.81 ( my calculation without rounding any number) ~ 25.85 (follow your calculation) degree. The difference is only 0.04 degree. 25.6 is a little bit too low, isn't it? Please nevermind! Thank you very much for your lessons!

I can see that the first angle is an alternate angle with the 45 degree angle, but if it is not explicitly stated in some way, how can I assume they are alternate?

That is a given. The index of refraction of glass varies from about 1.5 to about 1.6

Hi! thanks for the video, there's only one thing that isn't clear to me, why theta 3 is different from theta 2? why the angle changes?
@MichelvanBiezen
@MichelvanBiezen 6 жыл бұрын
Because the opposite sides are not parallel to one another. If you change the direction of the left side, you can see how that will affect the angle on the other side.

what if a light ray was traveling from the right side into the vertical surface of a glass prism?
@MichelvanBiezen
@MichelvanBiezen 6 жыл бұрын
If a ray goes across an interface perpendicular to the interface, it will not refract (bend) and continue in the same direction until it reaches the next interface.
