THE MIRAGE
Hot Desert Sand
air layers
Air layers closer to the sand are hotter and less dense. Light from
the sky is successively bent until a critical angle is reached and then
total internal reflection occurs.
A mirage "water" illusion is seen because the mind initially
interprets the light rays reaching our eyes as having come along a
straight path originating from the ground. Thus, the image of that
patch of sky we see "on the ground" is interpreted as a surface "pool
of water."
Water
for my hump!
Choose the letter of the correct answer.
• 1. An incident ray travels from air to water as
shown. Which is the refracted ray?
a. R1 b. R2 c. R3 d. R4
R1
R2
R3
R4
• 2. When light beam emerges from
water to air the speed of light
a. increases
b. decreases
c. remains the same
d. becomes zero
• 3. A spear fisher at A sees a fish which appears
to be at N. Where should the fisher aim so as
to hit the fish?
a. at O c. at N
b. at M d. none of these
A.
M.
N .
O.
• 4. A ray of light passes from a transparent
substance to another. What happens to its
speed if it is from air to water?
a. slows down and changes its direction of
travel
b. speeds up and changes its direction of
travel
c. decreases but travel straight
d. remains the same
• 5. Which property of light is shown
when pencil partly immersed in
water appears bent?
a. interference
b. diffraction
c. reflection
d. refraction
Assignment
• What determines how large
the bending of light ray is
when it passes through
different medium?
