    This document contains questions about an experiment on the refraction of light through a glass slab. It asks the student to: 1) Describe the relationship they noticed between the angle of incidence and angle of emergence. 2) State the angle of incidence for which light enters a new medium without refraction. 3) Explain how they made the experiment reliable. 4) State two precautions taken to minimize errors.
