Advantages:
• A sonar or echo sounder is a device that allows man to find out the
position to which objects located deep or submerged at a certain
distance from a ship are located.
They are also used to find wrecks in the sea or ocean, schools of fish
and other submerged elements.
This element works by emitting a wave signal those later returns to its
origin when it collides with some object.
Disadvantages
if the light passes from one medium of propagation to another with a different
optical density and does not strike perpendicularly on the surface, it
undergoes a change of speed and a change of direction. this change can be
calculated with Snell's law, which says that:
Advantages:
• One of the major uses of reflection in telecommunications is the use of
optical fiber since a flexible cable of transparent material that has a
refractive index such that said index is greater than the refractive index
of the material that covers it. In this way, when a pulse of light is
introduced with a certain angle of entry into the fiber, it is confined in
its interior reaching the end with little loss of intensity, since all the
reflections that are produced meet the condition of reflection total.
Thus, the possible angles of light input to the fiber define an
acceptance cone within which the rays must be intended to meet the
condition of total reflection inside the fiber.
• Another advantage is the use of transmissions in the ionosphere for
the refraction of radio waves through which signals are propagated
throughout the world.
• Theories of reflection and refraction have wide applications both in
everyday objects, such as mirrors or glasses, and in scientific fields,
such as crystallography and microscopy.
Disadvantages:
• The refraction in the media depending on how dense the surface is, its
line will bend towards a line drawn normal to the boundary surface.
• in the transmission it is necessary that the frequency remains constant
so that the value of the wavelength does not change

The total reflection occurs when a wave is produced perpendicular to the boundary
between a lossless dielectric and a perfect conductor and occurs in a particular
condition of the reflection of the waves.
Snell's law (also called the Snell-Descartes law) is a formula used to calculate
the refractive angle of light by traversing the separation surface between two
means of propagating light (or any electromagnetic wave) with a refractive
index. different.
In optics the total internal reflection is the phenomenon that occurs when a
ray of light crosses a means of refractive index n2 smaller than the index of
refraction n1 in which it is found, is refracted in such a way that it is not able
to cross the surface between both media completely reflecting.
This phenomenon only occurs for angles of incidence higher than a certain
critical value, θc. For larger angles the light stops crossing the surface and is
reflected internally completely. Total internal reflection only occurs in rays
traveling from a medium of high refractive index towards lower refractive index
media.
The critical angle or limit angle is also the minimum angle of incidence at
which the total internal reflection occurs. The angle of incidence is measured
with respect to the normal separation of the media. The critical angle is given
by:

In the following figure 𝑛1 = 1.9, 𝑛2 = 1.4, and 𝑛3 = 1.1, light refracts from material 1 into
material 2. If it is incident at point A at the critical angle for the interface between materials 2 and
3, what are:
First we need to find the critical angle at point “A” because the light makes a total internal
reflation because of n2 is higher than n3 and so
Using the nell´s law and a new graphic with the normal at that point
𝑛2 𝑆𝑒𝑛𝜔 = 𝑛3 𝑆𝑒𝑛 90
𝑛3
𝑆𝑒𝑛𝜔 =
𝑛2
1,1
𝑆𝑒𝑛𝜔 =
1,4
𝜔 = 51,780
𝜔 + 𝛽 = 90
𝛽 = 90 − 𝜔
𝛽 = 90 − 51,78
𝛽 = 38,220
Appling the Geometric, we can say that opposite angles by vertex are equal, so
𝛽 = 𝛽𝑟
𝜔 = 𝜔𝑟
So the incident angle at point B with the new Normal is 𝛽𝑟 and applying snell´s law when the ray
diffract because n3 is lower than n2
𝑛3 𝑆𝑒𝑛𝛾 = 𝑛2 𝑆𝑒𝑛 𝛽𝑟
𝑛1 𝑆𝑒𝑛∅ = 𝑛2 𝑆𝑒𝑛𝜔𝑟
𝑛2 𝑆𝑒𝑛𝜔𝑟
𝑆𝑒𝑛∅ =
𝑛1
1,4 𝑆𝑒𝑛 51,78
𝑆𝑒𝑛∅ =

∅ = 35,37𝑜
If, instead, light is incident at B at the critical angle for the interface between materials 2 and 3,
what are (c) the angle of refraction at point A and (d) the initial angle 𝜃
n1 = 1 for air
Since N2 > N1, we know that the beam bends towards the normal.
Tan(60°) = X1 / 50cm
X1 = 0.86m
Tan(22.08°) = X2/2.5m
X2 = 1.01m
X = X1 + X2 = 0.86m+1.01m= 1.87m
