Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

Which of the following phenomena is NOT a result of total internal reflection?
Correct Answer: Prism dispersion
  • Step 1: Understand what total internal reflection is. It occurs when light hits a boundary at a steep angle and reflects completely back into the medium.
  • Step 2: Identify the phenomena that result from total internal reflection. Examples include fiber optics and the sparkle of diamonds.
  • Step 3: Look at the options given in the question. One of them is prism dispersion.
  • Step 4: Know that prism dispersion happens when light passes through a prism and bends (refracts) at different angles, separating colors.
  • Step 5: Conclude that prism dispersion does not involve total internal reflection, while the other options do.
