Which phenomenon explains the formation of mirages in deserts?

  • AReflection of light
  • BDiffraction of light
  • CTotal internal reflection due to air density layers
  • DDispersion of light
Permalink
Correct Answer: Option C — Total internal reflection due to air density layers
Explanation: Mirages form due to total internal reflection when light rays from the sky refract through layers of air with varying temperature and density creating the illusion of water on the ground.

What is the angle of incidence when a ray of light undergoes total internal reflection?

  • ALess than the critical angle
  • BEqual to 90 degrees
  • CGreater than the critical angle
  • DEqual to 45 degrees
Permalink
Correct Answer: Option C — Greater than the critical angle
Explanation: Total internal reflection occurs when light travels from a denser to a rarer medium and the angle of incidence exceeds the critical angle causing all light to be reflected back.

Which scientist formulated the law of universal gravitation?

  • AGalileo Galilei
  • BIsaac Newton
  • CMichael Faraday
  • DJames Clerk Maxwell
Permalink
Correct Answer: Option B — Isaac Newton
Explanation: Isaac Newton formulated the law of universal gravitation in 1687 stating that every mass attracts every other mass with a force proportional to their masses and inversely proportional to the square of the distance.
