QUIZ:
Refractive Index
 
|
|
|
Study the two images above. Then choose the description below that most accurately describes the mineral immersed in the oils. |
|
| The refractive index of the mineral is equal to that of OIL 1 |  |
| The refractive index of the mineral is equal to that of OIL 2 |  |
| The refractive index of the mineral is closest to that of OIL 1 |  |
| The refractive index of the mineral is between that of OIL 1 and OIL 2 |  |
|
When the refractive index of a mineral is equal to the refractive index of the immersion oil this means that: |
|
| The clarity and color of both materials are the same | |
| The speed of light is the same within both materials | |
| The viscosity of both materials are the same | |
| Light is absorbed to the same degree in both materials | |
