24.2 Reflection and Refraction of Light Waves Huygens' Principle |
| Instructions: Click on the "Start Simulation" button to open the applet window. You can change the index of refraction of both media and the angle of incidence of the wave by entering them. This applet is a sort of tutorial. Explanations for each of the steps are provided in the text box. Whenever a step is finished, press the "Next Step" button. Navigation: You can come back to this window by pressing the "Close Simulation" button on the bottom frame of the utility. |
| Explanation: The concepts involved in this simulation are discussed in sections 24.1 and 24.2. |
