K.C.S.E Physics Q & A - MODEL 2019PP2QN17
(a) Figure 10 shows a ray of light travelling from glass to air.
​Determine the:
(i) critical angle of the glass — air interface (ii) refractive index of glass (b) Apiece of metal is embedded at the centre of an ice block 15cm from the surface of the ice. Given that the refractive index of ice is 1.32, determine how far from the surface of the ice block the metal appears to be. (c) Figure 11 shows, two rays of incident on a diverging lens.
Complete the ray diagram to show the path of the rays after passing through the lens.
(d) (i) State two differences between the human eye and a camera lens. (ii) State the name of the part of the eye that enable the lens to focus images of objects at different distances. ​

​(a) Figure 5 shows the interface between glass and air.
​Draw on the figure a ray diagram to illustrate the critical angle.
(b) Figure 6 shows a ray of light incident at right angles to face AB of a right angled glass prism of refractive index 1.62.
​(i) Determine the critical angle of the material.
(ii) Complete the ray diagram to show the path of light until it leaves the prism. (c)State any two applications of prisms. K.C.S.E Physics Q & A - MODEL 2016PP2QN09
Draw a ray diagram to show how a ray of light may be totally internally reflected two times in an isosceles right - angled glass prism.(Assume that the critical angle of glass is 42
