Detailed Solution

Light travels from rarer to denser medium

Question Image

δ=i-r δ=i-sin-1sin iμ

non-linear increasing function of i.

Question Image

Slope of tangent: dδdi=1-cos iμ2-sin2i

Slope of tangent decreases as i increases.

Hence 'c' is the graph for light that travels from rarer to denser medium.

For light that travels from denser to rarer medium ,δ = r-i =sin-1(μ sin i)-i d2δdi2=μ(μ2-1) sin i(1-μ2sin2i)32>0 . So option (1) is right .
