A ray of light travelling in water is incident on its surface open to air.The angle of incidence is `theta`,which is less than the critical angle .Then,there will be

A

only a reflected ray and no refracted ray.

B

only a refracted ray and no reflected ray.

C

a reflected ray and a refracted ray and the angle between them would be less than `180^@-2 theta`.

D

a reflected ray and a refracted ray and the angle between them would be greater than `180 ^@ - 2 theta`.
