In physics and electrical engineering the reflection coefficient is a parameter that describes how much of a wave is reflected by an impedance discontinuity in the transmission medium. It is equal to the ratio of the amplitude of the reflected wave to the incident wave, with each expressed as phasors. For example, it is used in optics to calculate the amount of light that is reflected from a surface with a different index of refraction, such as a glass surface, or in an electrical transmission line to calculate how much of the electromagnetic wave is reflected by an impedance discontinuity. The reflection coefficient is closely related to the transmission coefficient. The reflectance of a system is also sometimes called a "reflection coefficient". Different specialties have different applications for the term. (Wikipedia).

Refraction (1 of 5) What is Refraction? An Explanation
Refraction, A conceptual qualitative explanation. Refraction is the change in direction of a ray of light as it passes from one medium to another. The amount of refraction is determined by the index of refraction of the media and the angle of incidence. For light, refraction follows Snell

Refraction (4 of 5) Calculating the Critical Angle
Shows how to calculate the critical angle for total internal reflection. Total internal reflection is the complete reflection of a ray of light that is traveling within one medium, such as water or glass, from the boundary with a second medium back into the first medium. The phenomenon oc
