Ray optics
Question

{\mu _a},\,{\mu _b},\,{\mu _c} are refractive indices of the media A, B, C respectively, so that {\mu _a} > \,{\mu _b} > \,{\mu _c}. The critical angle arises when a ray of light travels from

Moderate
Solution

To observe the critical angle the ray should move from denser to rarer medium as {\mu _a} > \,{\mu _b} > \,{\mu _c}  when light goes from A to B or B to C or A to C we will be able to observe critical angle.
