Snell Law of refraction

 

To verify Snells Law of Refraction.

To find the Refractive Index of a glass block.

Diagram

 

Formula: n = sin i/ sin r.

 

Errors: Measurement of angles only as accurate a protractor.

 

Accuracy: If the angle of incidence is made larger then the refracted angle becomes larger, reducing percentage error of the protractor.
