Physics 52 Refraction and Snell's Law (9 of 11) Ex. 4: Light Through a Prism

In this video I will find angle=? of the exiting light beam of a prism.

I thought no other tutor could ever explain better than the organic chemistry tutor....but you are one of a kind sir💯💯

After doing these calculations a few times, I noticed that for a 60 degree equilateral prism, the two angles inside the prism (theta 2 and theta 3) add up to 60. Nice little shortcut for equilateral prisms--less geometry!

just about to take my aqa A level physics exam tomorrow and came across your workthroughs for difficult refraction and TIR problems, just what i needed! been stuggling on more complex ones like these for a while and you have helped me alot with this topic! a big thanks to your physics and mathematics playlists, cant wait to see more vids in the future!

[MrDivad]

The video is 1st class, excellent explanation and the quality of the overall video is just wow.

[tnowroz]

Thanks, this is by far the best prism lesson I've found :)

[CoolittleProductions]

THANK YOU SO MUCH. This made so much more sense after you went step by step and showed which angles were relative to which normal.

[minyo]

thank you so much i watched a lot of videos and none of them explained it like you did! i understand now

[jtotherock]

This is challenging! I rewatched twice to fully understand. What is difficult in my opinion is knowing to replicate the horizontal beneath the refracted light once more and knowing it is also 30 degrees because it was the angle between the medium and horizontal coming in on the left side, then adding the 5.7 degrees to that because of the reflected angle.

cool fact:If you transpose the light beam such that the normal entry line intersects with one corner of the prism, you can apply angle sum of triangle twice to find the 35.7 deg

thank you very much sir for the video I understand after seeing this video but I have a question 1, 56where did you get it from? Thank you in advance sir 🙏🏻

[samtoh]

thank you so much for the great guide, couldnt find any better than this

[eyadfromthesky]

You are a great teacher and person! Thank you

[zaidfanek]

What should you do if nsin(theta) is greater than 90.

[MrNano-hj]

is there a way to find the result without using a calculatrice ?? btw thanks for the explanation god bless youu

[נעםונונו-טי]

thank you for all your great lessons!
do u have a lesson for Angle of devitation?

[paulobatitay]

How did you find out the 10 degrees and 30 degrees on the angle of incidence?

[dds]

Why would you bother to keep track of the angles' relations to the "horizontal"? It is just as irrelevant as the "base" angles!
If you don't have enough points of reference, why not add the North Star or the direction to the bathroom?
It seems that the hypothesis is not about refraction, but the refraction on a specific prism on somebody's horizontal desk

[nicolezhang]

How did you know what angle theta sub 3 was?

[ayushgupta]

i still don't get, how you find third angle

[danijelpupek]

Great video! Now I finally understand it.
