Two transparent media and are separated by a plane boundary. The speed of light in those media are and , respectively. The critical angle for a ray of light for these two media is:
Options
- A
- B
- C
- D
Correct answer
A.
Step-by-step solution
Refractive index in terms of speed of light \left(c\right) in medium is given by, .
So, for medium , and for medium ,
For critical angle, angle of refraction .
Using Snell's law,
