A ray of monochromatic light is incident on the plane surface of separation between two media x and y with angle of incidence `i` in the medium x and angle of refraction r in the medium y. The graph shows the relation between sin `i` and sin `r`.

A

The speed of light in the medium y is `sqrt(3)` times than in medium x

B

The speed of light in the medum y is `1/(sqrt(3))` times than in medium x

C
