The angle of polarisation for any medium...

The angle of polarisation for any medium is `60^(@)` , what will be critical angle for this

A

`sin^(-1)sqrt(3)`

B

`tan^(-1)sqrt(3)`

C

`cos^(-1)sqrt(3)`

D

`sin^(-1)""(1)/(sqrt(3))`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D
By using `mu = tan i_(p)`
`mu = tan 60^(@) = sqrt(3)`
`C = sin^(-1)((1)/(mu)) rArr C = sin^(-1)((1)/(sqrt(3)))`
