If the polarising angle for a given medium is ` 60^@`, then the refractive index of the medium is

A

`1/(sqrt(3))`

B

`sqrt((3)/(2))`

C

`l`

D

`sqrt(3)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
d
`sqrt(3)`
Refractive index, `mu = tan i_(p)`
`mu = tan 60^(@)`
`:. mu = sqrt(3)`
