Title reflection refraction and total internal reflection
Description This experiment contains two parts to be done, which are: Part I:This part defines the reflection and refraction laws of light and use Snell’s law to calculate the index of refraction of unknown material. Part II: This part defines the meaning of the critical angle and the total internal reflection and use the critical angle to calculate the index of refraction of a material.
