Question

Properties of Light Lab As light travels from one material, or medium into the next, it may refract or bend. The amount of refraction depends on the density of the material the light rays are traveling through. The greater the density of a material, the more the light rays will refract, or bend as they pass through. The amount of refraction can be measured by using a protractor to measure the angle of the light as it bends. It can also be measured using an index of refraction tool, which is a way to measure how light behaves as it moves through different materials. Now it is your turn to give it a try! In the  Properties of Light Lab, you will be using the Bending Light Intro simulation to investigate how the density of a material affects refraction. Be sure to record your observations of how the light rays interact as they pass from air, on top of the simulation screen, through each of the three materials on the bottom of the simulation screen in the Properties of Light Lab Report. You will submit your completed Properties of Light Lab report. Be sure to review the grading rubric before submitting your work.

Answer 1

Answer:

The intensity or refraction depends on the material

Explanation:

In the experiment, the purpose it to determine the effect of the material on the refraction index. The refraction index is the ration of the incident ray to the refracted ray. This relationship is known as Snell's law of refraction and is expressed as:

• $\frac{sin i}{sin r} = n$

where i and r are angles of incident an the refracted ray and n is the refractive index.

The dense the material, the more the angle bends. This means that the angle of refraction, as measured by the protractor, is going to be large.

Answer 2

I dont have the rubric so.

Here we go!

The amount of refraction can be measured by using a protractor to measure the angle of the light as it bends. The greater the density of a material, the more the light rays will refract, or bend as they pass through. The greater the density of a material, the more the light rays will refract, or bend as they pass through.

Hope this helps!
