        The refractive index of the material of the prism and liquid are 1.56 and 1.32 respectively. What will be the value of 9 for the following refraction?

    A)  \[\sin \theta \ge \frac{13}{11}\]                              

    B)  \[\sin \theta \ge \frac{11}{13}\]

    C)  \[\sin \theta \ge \frac{3}{12}\]                 

    D)  \[\sin \theta \ge \frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}\]

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

                    Using the formula \[{{\mu }_{prism}}=\frac{{{\mu }_{liquid}}}{{{\mu }_{prism}}}=\frac{1.32}{1.56}=\frac{11}{13}\] ?.(i) Now, the condition for total internal reflection, occur when                 \[\sin \theta \ge \mu \] So,          \[\sin \theta \ge \frac{11}{13}\]
