Geometric Optics – Using a Ray Approximation
Light travels in a straight-line path in a homogeneous medium until it encounters a boundary between two different media
The ray approximation is used to represent beams of light
A ray of light is an imaginary line drawn along the direction of travel of the light beams
![Page 7: PHY2054 Fall 2011](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062310/568161e8550346895dd2178a/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Ray Approximation A wave front is a
surface passing through points of a wave that have the same phase and amplitude
The rays, corresponding to the direction of the wave motion, are perpendicular to the wave fronts
![Page 8: PHY2054 Fall 2011](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062310/568161e8550346895dd2178a/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Reflection of Light A ray of light, the incident ray,
travels in a medium When it encounters a boundary
with a second medium, part of the incident ray is reflected back into the first medium This means it is directed backward
into the first medium
![Page 9: PHY2054 Fall 2011](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062310/568161e8550346895dd2178a/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Specular Reflection Specular reflection is
reflection from a smooth surface
The reflected rays are parallel to each other
All reflection in this text is assumed to be specular
![Page 10: PHY2054 Fall 2011](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062310/568161e8550346895dd2178a/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Diffuse Reflection Diffuse reflection
is reflection from a rough surface
The reflected rays travel in a variety of directions
Diffuse reflection makes the dry road easy to see at night
![Page 11: PHY2054 Fall 2011](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062310/568161e8550346895dd2178a/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Law of Reflection The normal is a line
perpendicular to the surface
It is at the point where the incident ray strikes the surface
The incident ray makes an angle of θ1 with the normal
The reflected ray makes an angle of θ1’ with the normal
![Page 12: PHY2054 Fall 2011](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062310/568161e8550346895dd2178a/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Law of Reflection, cont The angle of reflection is equal to
the angle of incidence θ1= θ1’
The reflected ray, the incident ray and the normal are all coplanar.
![Page 13: PHY2054 Fall 2011](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062310/568161e8550346895dd2178a/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
θ+β = 120°
![Page 14: PHY2054 Fall 2011](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062310/568161e8550346895dd2178a/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Refraction of Light When a ray of light traveling through a
transparent medium encounters a boundary leading into another transparent medium, part of the ray is reflected and part of the ray enters the second medium
The ray that enters the second medium is bent at the boundary This bending of the ray is called refraction
![Page 15: PHY2054 Fall 2011](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062310/568161e8550346895dd2178a/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Refraction of Light, cont The incident ray, the
reflected ray, the refracted ray, and the normal all lie on the same plane
The angle of refraction, θ2, depends on the properties of the medium (Snell’s law)
n1 sinθ1 = n2 sin θ2
![Page 16: PHY2054 Fall 2011](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062310/568161e8550346895dd2178a/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Following the Reflected and Refracted Rays
Ray is the incident ray
Ray is the reflected ray
Ray is refracted into the lucite
Ray is internally reflected in the lucite
Ray is refracted as it enters the air from the lucite
![Page 17: PHY2054 Fall 2011](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062310/568161e8550346895dd2178a/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Refraction Details, 1 Light may refract
into a material where its speed is lower
The angle of refraction is less than the angle of incidence The ray bends
toward the normal
![Page 18: PHY2054 Fall 2011](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062310/568161e8550346895dd2178a/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Refraction Details, 2 Light may refract
into a material where its speed is higher
The angle of refraction is greater than the angle of incidence
The ray bends away from the normal
![Page 19: PHY2054 Fall 2011](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062310/568161e8550346895dd2178a/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
The Index of Refraction When light passes from one
medium to another, it is refracted because the speed of light is different in the two media
The index of refraction, n, of a medium can be defined
speed ofl ight in a vacuum cnspeed ofl ight in a medium v
![Page 20: PHY2054 Fall 2011](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062310/568161e8550346895dd2178a/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Index of Refraction, cont Some values of n
For a vacuum, n = 1 For other media, n > 1 n is a unitless ratio
As the value of n increases, the speed of the wave decreases
![Page 21: PHY2054 Fall 2011](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062310/568161e8550346895dd2178a/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Frequency Between Media As light travels from
one medium to another, its frequency does not change
Both the wave speed and the wavelength do change
The wavefronts do not pile up, nor are created or destroyed at the boundary, so ƒ must stay the same
![Page 22: PHY2054 Fall 2011](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062310/568161e8550346895dd2178a/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Index of Refraction Extended The frequency stays the same as the
wave travels from one medium to the other
v = ƒ λ The ratio of the indices of refraction of
the two media can be expressed as various ratios
