If light travels a distance $x$ in time $t_1$ sec in air and $10x$ distance in time $t_2$ sec in a certain medium,then find the critical angle of the medium.

  • A
    $\sin ^{-1}\left(\frac{20 t_1}{t_2}\right)$
  • B
    $\sin ^{-1}\left(\frac{10 t_1}{t_2}\right)$
  • C
    $\sin ^{-1}\left(\frac{t_1}{t_2}\right)$
  • D
    $\sin ^{-1}\left(\frac{t_2}{10 t_1}\right)$
