Top Questions on Refraction of Light
Two light beams fall on a transparent material block at point 1 and 2 with angle \( \theta_1 \) and \( \theta_2 \), respectively, as shown in the figure. After refraction, the beams intersect at point 3 which is exactly on the interface at the other end of the block. Given: the distance between 1 and 2, \( d = 4/3 \) cm and \( \theta_1 = \theta_2 = \cos^{-1} \frac{n_2}{2n_1} \), where \( n_2 \) is the refractive index of the block and \( n_1 \) is the refractive index of the outside medium, then the thickness of the block is cm.

- At the interface between two materials having refractive indices \( n_1 \) and \( n_2 \), the critical angle for reflection of an EM wave is \( \theta_c \). The \( n_1 \) material is replaced by another material having refractive index \( n_3 \), such that the critical angle at the interface between \( n_1 \) and \( n_3 \) materials is \( \theta_{c3} \). If \( n_1 > n_2 > n_3 \), \( \frac{n_2}{n_3} = \frac{2}{5} \), and \( \sin \theta_{c2} - \sin \theta_{c1} = \frac{1}{2} \), then \( \theta_{c1} \) is:

- In a long glass tube, a mixture of two liquids A and B with refractive indices 1.3 and 1.4 respectively, forms a convex refractive meniscus towards A. If an object placed at 13 cm from the vertex of the meniscus in A forms an image with a magnification of \(-2\), then the radius of curvature of the meniscus is:
