JEE Main & Advanced Physics Ray Optics Question Bank Refraction of Light at Plane Surfaces

  • question_answer
    A beam of light propagating in medium A with index of refraction n  passes across an interface into medium B with index of refraction n. The angle of incidence is greater than the angle of refraction; v and v denotes the speed of light in A and B. Then which of the following is true

    A)            v > v  and n > n

    B)            v > v  and  n < n

    C)            v < v  and  n > n

    D)            v < v  and  n < n

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

                       Q Ð i > Ð r,  it means light ray is going from rarer medium  to denser medium. So \[v(A)>v(B)\] and \[n(A)<n(B)\]
