Selina Concise Physics Class 10 ICSE Solutions Chapter 4 - Refraction of Light at Plane Surfaces

Selina Concise Physics Class 10 ICSE Solutions Refraction of Light at Plane Surfaces Selina ICSE Solutions for Class 10 Physics Chapter 4 Refraction of Light at Plane Surfaces Exercise 4(A) Solution 1. The change in the direction of the path of light, when it passes from one transparent medium to another transparent medium, is called refraction of light . Solution 2.    Solution 3. The ray of light which is incident normally on a plane glass slab passes undeviated. That is such a ray suffers no bending at the surface because here the angle of incidence is 0°. Thus if angle of incidence ∠i = 0°, then the angle of refraction ∠r = 0°. And the angle of deviation of the ray will also be 0°. Solution 5. The refraction of light (or change in the direction of path of light in other medium) occurs because light travels with different speeds in different media. When a ray of light passes from one medium to another, its direction (except for ∠i = 0°) changes because of change in its spe...
