Critical angle will be maximum, when light travels from
- A glass to air
- B glass to water
- C water to air
- D diamond to air
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(B) glass to water
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
The critical angle between two media is given by \(i_{c}=\sin ^{-1}\left(\frac{\mu_{1}}{\mu_{2}}\right)\) As we know that, \(\mu_{\text {air }}=1, \mu_{\text {water }}=1.33, \mu_{\text {glass }}=1.5\) and \(\mu_{\text {diamond }}=2.4\). From given values,…
