Description
A beam of light will have its path changed depending on the different refractive indexes it crosses. If the incident beam has uniform intensity throughout its cross section and is sent though a refractive medium, the transmitted beam will generate a pattern that will give information about this medium. If the refractive index of this medium is constant, the pattern will depend on the shape of the refracting object. Here, light passing through a double-walled beaker is projected on a screen.
