The critical angle for light going from medium $A$ into medium $B$ is $\theta$. The speed of light in medium $A$ is $V_A$. What is the speed of light in medium $B$?

  • A
    $V_{A} \sin \theta$
  • B
    $V_{A} \tan \theta$
  • C
    $\frac{V_{A}}{\tan \theta}$
  • D
    $\frac{V_{A}}{\sin \theta}$
