If light travels a distance x in time t 1 in air and 10 x distance in time t 2 in a certain medium, then find the critical angle for total internal reflection, of the medium.
Options
- As i n - 1 20 t 1 t 2
- Bs i n - 1 10 t 1 t 2
- Cs i n - 1 t 1 t 2
- Ds i n - 1 t 2 10 t 1
Correct answer
B. s i n - 1 10 t 1 t 2
Step-by-step solution
μ = x t 1 10 x t 2 = t 2 10 t 1 sin ⁡ θ c = 1 t 2 / 10 t 1 = 10 t 1 t 2 ⇒ θ c = s i n - 1 10 t 1 t 2
