Light travels a distance $x$ in time $t_1$ in air and $10x$ in time $t_2$ in another denser medium. What is the critical angle for this medium?

  • A
    $\sin^{-1}\left(\frac{10 t_1}{t_2}\right)$
  • B
    $\sin^{-1}\left(\frac{t_2}{t_1}\right)$
  • C
    $\sin^{-1}\left(\frac{10 t_2}{t_1}\right)$
  • D
    $\sin^{-1}\left(\frac{t_1}{10 t_2}\right)$

Initially,$AB$ is the interface of a slab of refractive index $\mu$ and air. $A$ ray of light strikes $AB$ at the critical angle $\theta_c$. Now,a slab $ABCD$ of refractive index $\mu_1$ is placed on top such that total internal reflection takes place at the surface $CD$ (and not at the surface $AB$). What should be the value of $\mu_1$?
