Human Eye Verified

The human eye is a paired light-sensing organ that helps us see objects around us. It has a lens in its structure. The main parts of the human eye are the cornea, iris, crystalline lens, pupil, ciliary muscles, retina, optic nerve, aqueous humour, and vitreous humour. The cornea is a transparent membrane that light first enters through. The iris is a colored muscular diaphragm that controls the size of the pupil. The crystalline lens is a soft flexible material that helps focus light onto the retina.

# DISPERSION OF WHITE LIGHT BY GLASS PRISM : I close 20171


A
The phenomenon of splitting
is called
of white light into its constituent colours, when
it passes through a prism Dispersion .

This band of seven colours so obtained ,


the VIBGYOR (Violet , Indigo ,
Blue , Green
,

Yellow , Orange , Red ) is called spectrum .

Why Dispersion occurs ?


light rays of different colours travel ,
with
the same speed
in vacuum and air but in
any medium, they travel with different
other

speeds toand bend through different angles , which


leads dispersion of light .

** a [ Cbse 202012017,20161
# Recombination of white light or
Reverse of dispersion is also possible .

Seven coloured
lights of the spectrum
can be recombined

by pulsing two
to
give back white
prisms , one upside down
light

litght of seven colours

# RAINBOW : A natural spectrum produced by


-

the dispersion of sunlight by raindrops in the


atmosphere .

°
Water droplets acts as small prisms .

° Water droplets refract and disperse the incident


sunlight then,
reflect internally and finally , reflect
it again when it comes out of raindrop .
ATMOSPHERIC REFRACTION
when refraction takes place between two mediums and if one of the medium
is earth 's atmosphere then the process is called
atmospheric refraction .

Therefore , the apparent position

The star to be
appears slightly higher than its actual position,
when viewed near the horizon .

# Planets do not Twinkle : The planets are much closer to the earth and are
considered a collection of a large number of point sized sources of light , the
total amount of light entering our eye from all the individual point sized
sources will
average out to zero , there by nullifying the twinkling effect .

# Tyndall Effect : The earth's atmosphere is a
mixture of minute particles of smoke

dust of air which becomes visible due to
tiny water droplets , of scattering light .

→ Ccbse 2015g 20123


# Colour of sky is Blue : The molecules of air and other fine particles in the
atmosphere have smaller size and are more effective in scattering light of shooter
wavelength
at the blue end than light of longer wavelengths at the end Thus, .

when sunlight passes through the atmosphere , the fine particles in air scatter
the blue colour more strongly than red The scattered blue

# Colour of Sun at sunrise and Sunset : Kb se 20131


Light from the sun near the horizon passes through
thicker
layers of air and larger distances in the
earth 's
atmosphere before reaching our eyes .

Near the horizon, most of the blue light and


shorter wavelength scattered the

particles Therefore , the light

eyes Ps of longer wavelengths . This give rise to the reddish appearance of sun .
