Reflection and Refraction of Light in Diamonds Part II

Part II of this series examines dispersion in a diamond (sometimes called fire) and the factors that influence it along with clarity, colour and carat. Furthermore, the optics of good and poor cut for a diamond is examined by investigating total internal reflection. This simulation is ideal for the physics classroom.
