  • Q4
    What is the distance from the lens to the principal focus called?

  • Q5
    Which formula correctly states how refractive index is related to the angles of incidence and refraction?
    refractive index = sin i⁄2 sin r
    refractive index = sin i⁄sin r
    refractive index = 2 sin i⁄sin r
    refractive index = sin r⁄sin i
