प्रश्न
What is meant by the statement the critical angle for diamond is 24°?
उत्तर
The critical angle for diamond is 24°. This implies that at an incident angle of 24° within the diamond the angle of refraction in the air will be 90°. And if incident angle will be more than this angle then the ray will suffer total internal reflection without any refraction.
