Critical angle for light going from medium (i) to (ii) is `theta` . The speed of light in medium (i) is v then speed in medium (ii) is

A

`v(1-cos theta)`

B

`v//sintheta`

C

`v//costheta`

D

`v(1-sintheta)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
2

Let the speed of light in medium (ii) be `v^(1)`. If `mu` is refractive index of medium (i), denser w.r.t. medium (ii), rarer,then `mu`=`1/sintheta`=`(v')/v`
`thereforev'=v//sintheta`
