Glass Blocks
Product Code : JL-LEP-11612
The Glass Blocks (SKU JL-LEP-11612) are clear, plain glass blocks available in different shapes, used in light and optics practicals. Students shine a ray through these glass blocks to trace how light bends as it enters and leaves glass, measure angles of incidence and refraction, and observe reflection at the surfaces. JaincoLab manufactures them in India for school and college physics.
Specifications
The glass blocks are made of clear glass with a plain pattern and are available in different shapes for optics work.

Applications of the glass blocks
The blocks are placed on paper and a narrow ray of light is traced through them, so students can mark the incident, refracted and emergent rays and measure the angles involved.
- Tracing refraction of a light ray through a rectangular block
- Measuring angles of incidence and refraction to find refractive index
- Showing lateral displacement of a ray through parallel faces
- Demonstrating reflection and total internal reflection with suitably shaped blocks
- Light and optics practicals in secondary science and physics
