Answer 1

According Law of Reflection; Angle of Reflection = Angle of Incidence

From Snell' Law,

Here in Both Question's n1 is air, so , n1 = 1

Angle of Refraction,

8.

Angle of Reflection = 30

n = For water = 1.33

Answer is  

e) angle of reflection is 30 degrees and angle of refraction is 20 degrees

9.

Angle of Reflection = 40

n = For water = 1.5

Answer is

d) angle of reflection is 40 degrees, angle of refraction is 25 degrees, and the refractive index is about 1.5

10.

From the question energy varies inversely as the wavelength. Wavelength order is given below.

Red > Orange > Green >Blue>Purple

Purple has the lowest wavelength, hence the highest energy

Answer is

d) purple
