    When a ray of light is incident normally on a surface, then

    A)  total internal reflection takes place

    B)  it passes undeviated

    C)  it undergoes dispersion

    D)  it gets absorbed by the surface

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    From Hugen's principle, if the incident wave front be parallel to the interface of the two media \[(i=0),\] then the refracted wave front will also be parallel to the interface \[(r=0).\] In other words, if light rays fall normally on the          interface,   then   on  passing to the second medium they will not  deviate   from   their original path.
