प्रश्न
The critical angle for glass-air is 45° for the light of yellow colour. State whether it will be less than, equal to, or more than 45° for (i) ref light, (ii) blue light?
उत्तर
As the wavelength decreases (or increases) refractive index becomes more (or less) and critical angle becomes less (or more).
(i) For red light the critical angle will be more than 45° and
(ii) For blue light the critical angle will be less than 45°.
