    Light wave enters from medium 1 to medium 2. Its velocity in 2nd medium is double from 1st. For total internal reflection the angle of incidence must be greater than

    A) \[30{}^\circ \]              

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

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

    D) \[90{}^\circ \]

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

    \[\frac{{{\mu }_{2}}}{{{\mu }_{1}}}=\frac{{{\nu }_{1}}}{{{\nu }_{2}}}\,=\,\,\frac{1}{2}\,\,\,\,\Rightarrow \,\,\frac{{{\mu }_{1}}}{{{\mu }_{2}}}\,\,=\,\,2\,({{\mu }_{1}}>{{\mu }_{2}})\] For total internal reflection \[_{2}{{\mu }_{1}}\,=\,\,\frac{1}{\sin \,C}\,\,\Rightarrow \,\,\frac{{{\mu }_{1}}}{{{\mu }_{2}}}\]\[=\,\,\frac{1}{\sin \,C}\,\,\Rightarrow \,\,2=\,\,\frac{1}{\sin \,C}\,\,\Rightarrow \,\,C\,\,=\,\,30{}^\circ \] So, for total (internal reflection angle of incidence must be greater than\[30{}^\circ \].
