Ray Diagram Exercise

The document provides instructions for students to draw ray diagrams demonstrating the laws of reflection and refraction. For reflection diagrams, students are asked to draw normal lines, incident and reflected rays, and measure and label the angles of incidence and reflection. For refraction diagrams, students are instructed to draw normal lines, incident and refracted rays, and measure and label the angles of incidence and refraction, and indicate whether the light bends towards or away from the normal line.

Ray Diagram Assignment

Law of Reflection
For the following diagrams draw:

1. The normal line for each mirror


2. The incident ray(s)
3. The reflected ray(s)
4. Angle of incidence (i) – and measure (ex. 35 °)
5. Angle of reflection (r) – and measure (ex. 35 °)
6. Label the incident ray
7. Label the reflected ray

Hint: Two mirrors means you use the law of reflection twice
Refraction
For the following diagrams draw:

1. The normal line for each surface


2. The incident ray
3. The refracted ray
4. Angle of incidence (i) – and measure (ex. 35 °)
5. Angle of refraction (R) – and measure (ex. 35 °)
6. Label the incident ray
7. Label the refracted ray
