Calculate the refractive index of material with respect to air if its critical angle is `60^@`.

Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To calculate the refractive index of a material with respect to air given its critical angle of \(60^\circ\), we can follow these steps: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understand the Concept of Critical Angle**: The critical angle (\(C\)) is the angle of incidence above which total internal reflection occurs when light travels from a denser medium to a rarer medium. 2. **Use the Formula for Critical Angle**: ...
