Snell’s Law Calculator – Refraction & Refractive Index Tool
Snell’s Law Calculator is a powerful and easy-to-use physics calculator for solving light refraction problems instantly. Calculate the angle of incidence, angle of refraction, or refractive index with a real-time visual ray diagram and automatic formula updates.
Perfect for physics students, optics learners, teachers, and engineers. This calculator makes refraction calculations simple and precise.
Calculate Instantly
Solve for:
Angle of Incidence (θ₁)
Angle of Refraction (θ₂)
Refractive Index of Medium 1 (n₁)
Refractive Index of Medium 2 (n₂)
Based on the Snell’s Law formula:
n₁ · sin(θ₁) = n₂ · sin(θ₂)
All calculations update in real time as you adjust angles or refractive indices.
