Questions  

The velocity of light in a medium is half its velocity in air. If a ray of light emerges from such a medium into air, the angle of incidence, at which it will be totally internally reflected, is

a
15°
b
30°
c
45°
d
60°

detailed solution

Correct option is B

Max angle is the critical angle, velocity is halved, hence μr=2θC=Sin−11μr=Sin−112=300
