A ray incident at a point at an angle of incidence of `60^(@)` enters a glass sphere with refractive index `sqrt(3)` and it is reflected and refracted at the farther surface of the sphere. The angle between the reflected and refracted rays at this surface is:

A

`50^(@)`

B

`60^(@)`

C

`90^(@)`

D

`40^(@)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C

(c ) We have refractive index, `mu-sini/sinrrArrsqrt3=sin60^(@)/sinr`

Refracted angle,r=`30^(@)`
The angle between the reflected ray and refracted ray
`theta=180^(@)-i-r=90^(@)`
