is the Brewster angle for the medium is

is the Brewster angle for the medium is
Options
- A(60^{\circ})
- B(30^{\circ})
- C(90^{\circ})
- D(45^{\circ})
Correct answer
A. (60^{\circ})
Step-by-step solution
(A)By Brewster's law, (\mathrm{n}=\tan \theta_{p})Also (n=\frac{\sin i}{\sin r})But (\frac{\sin i}{\sin r}=\frac{1}{\text{ slope }}) of given graph(\frac{\sin i}{\sin r}=\frac{1}{\tan 30^{\circ}}=\frac{1}{\frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}}=\sqrt{3})(\therefore \tan \theta_{p}=\mathrm{n}=\sqrt{3})(\theta_{p}=\tan ^{-1}(\sqrt{3})=60^{\circ})
