QUESTIONS
1. Are your data consistent with the law of reflection? State your answer as quantitatively as possible.
2. State as quantitatively as possible the precision of your value for n, the index of refraction of the prism.
3. State how your data for the prism are evidence for the validity of Snell's law.
4. How well do your data for the focal lengths of the concave and convex mirror agree with the expectation that f = R/2? State your answer as quantitatively as possible.
5. Using the value of n determined for the prism, find the speed of light in the prism.
6. Inside the prism the wavelength of the light must change as well as the speed. Is a given wavelength longer or shorter inside the prism? Consider specifically light with a wavelength of 500 nm in air. What is the wavelength of this light inside the prism?
