Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(D) (iv) (iii) (i) (ii)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Figure showing the ray diagram of refraction at a plane surface. Given, \(i_p=\) angle of polarisation So, \( i_p=\tan ^{-1} \mu \Rightarrow i_p=\tan ^{-1} \sqrt{2}=\sin ^{-1} \sqrt{\frac{2}{3}} \) From Snell's law, \( \sin i_p=\mu \sin r \) Here,…
