Additional Learning Tools and Resources
Watching a presentation is a passive activity. Getting information is important ... but its not the destination or end point. Now that you've watched the video, its time to do something with the information you've heard. It's time to act on it. The resources below provide an opportunity to do this. We encourage learners to solidify their learning through the use of one or more of the following resources.
Calculator Pad, Refraction and Lenses Chapter, Problem Sets RL4 - RL9
If you need guided practice and help with using Snell's Law to solve Physics word problems, then you likely going to have difficulty finding a better resource than our Calculator Pad problem sets. Each problem is accompanied by a set of helpful resources that provide guidance on how to approach the problem. Problem Sets RL4 through RL9 have consist of many practice problems. Pick the ones you want to attempt and learn.
Minds On Physics, Refraction and Lenses Module, Mission RL4
Student persistence with Minds On Physics, combined with reflective thinking and the use of our Help function, will put any student at the top of the class. This mission pertains to the use of Snell's Law equation. Take the challenge.
The Physics Classroom Tutorial, Refraction and the Ray Model of Light, Lesson 2, Determination of the Index of Refraction
Our written tutorial pages form the basis of most videos. So when you need a quick reference, the Tutorial page is a great place to start. This page provides coverage of Slides 5 through 9 of the video.
