Questions and Answers

What is the purpose of using rays in optics?

  • To approximate solutions to Maxwell's equations
  • To simulate interference in wave optics theory
  • To model the propagation of light through an optical system (correct)
  • To describe phenomena such as diffraction

    • In which circumstances can wave phenomena like interference be modeled using the ray model?

  • When light waves propagate through homogeneous media
  • When the wavelength of light is much greater than the dimensions of objects (correct)
  • When light bends at the interface between dissimilar media
  • When refractive index changes in a medium

    • Which theory is required to describe phenomena such as diffraction in optics?

  • Wave optics theory (correct)
  • Maxwell's equations
  • Ray tracing theory
  • Geometric optics theory
