  • A
    Equal to the angle of reflection
  • B
    The angle between the refracted ray and the normal
  • C

Glass has refractive index $\mu$ with respect to air and the critical angle for a ray of light going from glass to air is $\theta$. If a ray of light is incident from air on the glass with angle of incidence $\theta$,the corresponding angle of refraction is:

$A$ vertical pencil of rays comes from the bottom of a tank filled with a liquid. When the tank is accelerated horizontally with an acceleration of $7.5\, m/s^2$,the ray is seen to be totally internally reflected by the liquid surface. What is the minimum possible refractive index of the liquid? (Take $g = 10\, m/s^2$)

Assertion: The refractive index of diamond is $\sqrt{6}$ and that of liquid is $\sqrt{3}$. If the light travels from diamond to the liquid,it will be totally internally reflected when the angle of incidence is $30^{\circ}$.
Reason: $\mu = \frac{1}{\sin C}$,where $\mu$ is the refractive index of diamond with respect to the liquid.
