    As a physics tutor, I've found this video to be very useful. Many professors do not perform an in class demonstration of critical angles, leading many students to not understand critical angles and think of it as an abstract topic. Showing them video has contiually been the easiest way to help them understand. Thank you for a simple video

      @@wellrose17 in this video, total internal refraction of light is being demonstrated. When light enters from optically rarer medium (air) to optically denser medium (glass slab) it bends towards the normal. When light travels from optically denser medium ( glass slab) to a optically rarer medium (air) it bends away from the normal. This case is required in TIR. When the angle between the incident ray and the normal becomes greater than the critical angle, TIR occurs. What is critical angle? Critical angle is the angle where the refractive angle becomes 90°, which means that when light is refracted going from denser to rarer medium, it's seen as grazing emergence ( refracted ray passes through the normal )

      @@wellrose17 If you want a simpler explanation, you notice those angle markings? When the angle at which the light hits the glass is lower than around 42°, it's slightly bent, which is shown in the beginning of the video. When it is at exactly 42° (the critical angle), the light is dispersed, forming a spectrum (the rainbow stuff you see around 0:56). After that, when the angle is higher than 42°,the light is instead reflected, which is the Total Internal Reflection in the title of the video. If you want specifics, the dude above me did it pretty damn well.

      Refractive index of glass is about 1.52. However, after applying formula of refractive index (sin i/sin r, included that the critical angle of glass is 42°), the result is about 1.49. So, a better representation for the critical angle of glass would be 41°, because when applied it is about 1.52 (or closer anyway).

    Everybody can actually observe Total internal refraction by opening their eyes underwater and looking up to the surface of the water. (Either in the ocean, but also a larger bath tub will work.) You will typically see:
    1: A central, circular area which forms at the water surface and in which you may directly observe the surroundings above the water surface (e.g. the sky). In the video, this corresponds to the light ray exiting the glass.
    2: Outside of that central spot however, the underwater enviroment is mirrored. (In dark underwater enviroments this part of the water surface is often darker or even black. In a bathtub or any really bright enviroment however, this might take on more the appereance of a bright mirror image.) So the angle at which that circle sits indicates the angle of total internal refraction. (And of course it is not a perfect circle, but quite distorted by waves.) This explains the typical look of underwater images facing up to the surface.

    [2023-11-11] We did this experiment in my 8th-grade (Jr. High) "Light" class almost a half-century ago (c. 1974). We had to observe and collect data of the exiting light's refraction angle at various angles of incidence into the glass block and determine at which angle of incidence, the light was internally reflected by the straight face of the block-scientific ideas on the properties of light, being introduced to 13-year-olds.
    Fascinating that the light apparatus hasn't changed in all those years.
    The screen in the apparatus can be inserted upside down (with the 3-slit side down) which would allow us to see the interference pattern of light emanating from the apparatus (demonstrating the wave properties of light). You can also see the interference in the lone beam emanating from the apparatus, as light tries to spill, at various intensity, either side of the primary beam.

    Excellent, as a student gemmologist, I find that this is an excellent video for studying refraction and Total Internal Reflection (TIR). Towards the end of the video, you were going towards the critical angle, where the angle of incidence is at such an angle that the angle of reflection is both reflecting and refracting along the optically dense media.
    Thank you for the superb video, I would definitely recommend it to my fellow student gemmologists.

    Towards the critical angle, the light actually started getting dispersed into a rainbow. So that's why they mostly give us a monochromatic light in questions regarding refraction!

    • @QuantumBoffin
      @QuantumBoffin  2 роки тому +4

      The light source housing was bought from an educational seller, but a suitable set up could easily be constructed using a 12v bulb and some cardboard (be careful if the bulb gets hot thought.
      To be frank, though, the best way to do the experiment is to use a laser pointer instead of a bulb. They can be purchased for very little money and are very bright.
