  • question_answer
    The wavelength  of light in two liquids 'x' and 'y' is \[3500\text{ }{AA}\text{ }and\text{ }7000\text{ }{AA}\] , then the critical angle of x  relative to y will be

    A) \[60{}^\circ \]

    B) \[45{}^\circ \]

    C) \[30{}^\circ \]

    D) \[15{}^\circ \]

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    The critical angle C is given by                    \[\sin C=\frac{{{n}_{2}}}{{{n}_{1}}}=\frac{{{\lambda }_{1}}}{{{\lambda }_{2}}}=\frac{3500}{7000}=\frac{1}{2}\]  Þ \[C={{30}^{o}}\]
