If refractive index of water is 4 3 and that of a given glass slab immersed in it is 5 3 . The value of critical angle for a ray of light tending to go from glass to water is
Options
- A⁻¹ ( 4 5 )
- B⁻¹ ( 3 4 )
- C⁻¹ ( 5 3 )
- D⁻¹ ( 4 3 )
Correct answer
A. ⁻¹ ( 4 5 )
Step-by-step solution
Given, refractive index of water, _w _a=4 / 3 Refractive index of glass slab, _g _a=5 / 3 Refractive index of combined media aligned & = g _a _w _a = 5 3 3 4 & = 5 4 aligned Critical angle, C= ⁻¹ ( 1 refractive index ) C= ⁻¹ ( 4 5 )
