प्रश्न
Find the maximum angle of refraction when a light ray is refracted from glass (μ = 1.50) to air.
उत्तर
Given,
Refractive index (μ) of the glass = 1.5
We know from the definition of a critical angle (θc) that if a refracted angle measures more than 90°, then total internal reflection takes place.
Hence, the maximum angle of refraction is 90°.
