Total Internal Reflection in Long Tank
Lecture Notes and Tutorials
The Reflection and Refraction of Light
These notes from the University of Boston include detailed explanations of background material, annotated diagrams and illustrations, and solved examples.
The Reflection and Refraction of Light
Refraction of Light
These notes from PhysicsLAB by Catherine H. Colwell contain detailed explanations of background material, annotated diagrams and illustrations, and solved examples.
Refraction of Light
Simulations
Refraction and Total Internal Reflection
Each simulation from the Physics Simulation Library includes an audio introduction and general directions. These simulations are very well designed, and each experiment gives the opportunity to change the parameters, collect data, and interpret various graphs.
