Refraction n 1 = 1 n 2 > 1 11 22 1 2 Radius = vT = (c/n)T 11 22

n 1 sin 1 = n 2 sin 2 Triangle hce sin 1 = 1 /hc Triangle hcg sin 2 = 2 /hc sin 1 /sin 2 = 1 / 2 = (v 1 /f) / (v 2 /f) = v 1 /v 2 = (c/n 1 )/(c/n 2 ) = n 2 /n 1 Snell’s Law

n 1 sin 1 = n 2 sin 2 2 = /2 ==> sin c = n 2 /n 1 Water n=1.5 Air n=1. c = 41.8 0 Reflection refraction

8
The path taken by light in travelling from one point to another is such that the time of travel is a minimum Fermat’s Principle
9
Refraction Minimize t with respect to x dt/dx=0 using dL 1 /dx=x/L 1 =sin 1 and dL 2 /dx=(x-d)/L 2 = -sin 2 dt/dx=(n 1 sin 1 - n 2 sin 2 )/c = 0 Time?
