Light travels in two media $A$ and $B$ with speeds $1.8 \times 10^8 \ m/s$ and $2.4 \times 10^8 \ m/s$ respectively. Then the critical angle between them is

  • A
    $\sin^{-1}(\frac{2}{3})$
  • B
    $\tan^{-1}(\frac{3}{4})$
  • C
    $\tan^{-1}(\frac{2}{3})$
  • D
    $\sin^{-1}(\frac{3}{4})$

$A$ ray of light travelling in water is incident on its surface open to air. The angle of incidence is $\theta$,which is less than the critical angle. Then there will be

What should be the maximum acceptance angle at the air-core interface of an optical fibre if $n_1$ and $n_2$ are the refractive indices of the core and the cladding,respectively?

$A$ rectangular glass slab $ABCD$,of refractive index $n_1$,is immersed in water of refractive index $n_2$ $(n_1 > n_2)$. $A$ ray of light is incident at the surface $AB$ of the slab as shown. The maximum value of the angle of incidence $\alpha_{max}$,such that the ray comes out only from the other surface $CD$,is given by
