$A$ ray of light travels from an optically denser medium to a rarer medium. The critical angle for the two media is $C$. The maximum possible deviation of the refracted light ray can be:

  • A
    $\pi - C$
  • B
    $2C$
  • C
    $\pi - 2C$
  • D
    $\frac{\pi}{2} - C$

Which of the following is used in optical fibres?

$A$ point source $S$ is placed at the bottom of different layers as shown in the figure. The refractive index of the bottom-most layer is $\mu_0$. The refractive index of any other upper layer is $\mu(n) = \mu_0 - \frac{\mu_0}{4n - 18}$,where $n = 1, 2, \dots$. $A$ ray of light with an angle of incidence $i$ slightly more than $30^\circ$ starts from the source $S$. Total internal reflection takes place at the upper surface of a layer having $n$ equal to

$A$ normally incident ray is reflected at an angle of $90^o$. The value of the critical angle is.......$^o$

For total internal reflection to take place,the angle of incidence $i$ and the refractive index $\mu$ of the medium must satisfy the inequality

$A$ ray of light is incident at an angle $i$ from a denser to a rarer medium. The reflected and the refracted rays are mutually perpendicular. The angle of reflection is $r$ and the angle of refraction is $r'$. Then the critical angle $C$ will be:
