Find θair for the following cases: θwater θair 40° 47° 48. 75° 50° nwater = 1. 33

Solution θwater θair 40° 47° 48. 75° 58. 7° 76. 6° 81. 3° 89. 4° 50° [Error] Total internal reflection

Total Internal Reflection

A slightly more accurate picture

Total internal reflection (TIR) Total internal reflection occurs when θincident > θc. It is when all the refracted light disappear and all the light got reflected back.

$The critical angle, θc θc is the angle of incidence θincidence when θrefraction =$

The critical angle, θc θc is the angle of incidence θincidence when θrefraction = 90 o

Wrong Answers! Define critical angle: X Critical angle is when TIR happens. (Is what? ? ? ) X Critical angle is the angle of incidence when TIR happens. (TIR happens for many values of θincidence) X Critical angle is the angle when TIR begins. (Which angle? ? ? ) Define TIR: X TIR is when the angle of incidence = critical angle. (What about θincidence>θc? ) X TIR is when the angle of incidence > critical angle. (Circular logic)

Total internal reflection

Huygen’s Principle Every point of a wave front may be considered the source of secondary wavelets that spread out in all directions with a speed equal to the speed of wave. The final wave is the sum of all these secondary wavelets.
