Light ray travels from air to glass and ...

Light ray travels from air to glass and air to water, as shown in figure (i) and (ii) respectively. What is refraction angle for figure (iii) ?

A

`30^@`

B

`35^@`

C

`60^@`

D

`41^@`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B, C

`""^a mu_g=(sin60^@)/(sin35^@)` …......(1)
`""^a mu_w=(sin60^@)/(sin41^@)` …......(2)
`""^w mu_g=(sin41^@)/(sintheta^@)` …......(3)
`""^amu_g=""^amu_wxx""^wmu_g`
`(sin 60^@)/(sin35^@)=(sin60^@)/(sin41^@)xx(sin41^@)/(sintheta)`
`therefore sin theta=sin 35^@`
`therefore theta=35^@`
