The polarising angle for a transparent medium is '\(\theta\)' and 'V' is the speed of light in that medium, then relation between ' \(\theta\) ' and ' \(\mathrm{V}\) ' is (c = velocity of light)

  1. A \(\theta=\sin ^{-1}\left(\frac{\mathrm{V}}{\mathrm{c}}\right)\)
  2. B \(\theta=\tan ^{-1}\left(\frac{\mathrm{V}}{\mathrm{c}}\right)\)
  3. C \(\theta=\cot ^{-1}\left(\frac{\mathrm{v}}{\mathrm{c}}\right)\)
  4. D \(\theta=\cos ^{-1}\left(\frac{\mathrm{V}}{\mathrm{c}}\right)\)
