    $\tan^{-1}\left(\frac{t_1}{t_2}\right)$
  • B
    $\sin^{-1}\left(\frac{t_1}{t_2}\right)$

If the refractive index of water is $\frac{4}{3}$ and that of a given glass slab immersed in it is $\frac{5}{3}$,the value of the critical angle for a ray of light tending to go from glass to water is:

The figure shows a transparent block of side lengths $a$ and $a$. The third dimension of the block is negligible. $A$ point source $S$,which can emit light in all directions,can move inside the block. It is desired that no light from $S$ should pass through the segment $AB$. The region in which $S$ must be present to satisfy this condition is shown by the shaded region. Choose the correct option.

With respect to air,the critical angle in a medium for red light of wavelength $\lambda_1$ is $\theta$. Other facts remaining same,the critical angle for yellow light of wavelength $\lambda_2$ will be

Total internal reflection of light is possible when light enters from

On the hypotenuse of a right-angled prism $(30^{\circ}-60^{\circ}-90^{\circ})$ with a refractive index of $1.50$,a drop of liquid is placed as shown in the figure. Light is allowed to fall normally on the short face of the prism. In order for the ray of light to undergo total internal reflection at the hypotenuse,what is the maximum value of the refractive index of the liquid?
