(B) Velocity of light in the medium is given by $v = \frac{d}{t} = \frac{3.0 	imes 10^{-2} \ m}{0.2 	imes 10^{-9} \ s} = 1.5 	imes 10^8 \ m/s$.The refractive index of the medium with respect to air is $\mu = \frac{c}{v} = \frac{3 	imes 10^8 \ m/s}{1.5 	imes 10^8 \ m/s} = 2$.The critical angle $C$ is given by $\sin C = \frac{1}{\mu} = \frac{1}{2}$,which implies $C = 30^o$.Total internal reflection $(TIR)$ occurs when the angle of incidence $i > C$. For case $(A)$,$i = 20^o For case $(B)$,$i = 40^o > 30^o$,so it will undergo total internal reflection.Therefore,the ray will suffer total internal reflection in case $(B)$ only.

Light is incident from a medium into air at two possible angles of incidence $(A) \ 20^o$ and $(B) \ 40^o$. In the medium,light travels $3.0 \ cm$ in $0.2 \ ns$. The ray will

In an optical fibre, the core and cladding are made with materials of refractive indices $1.5$ and $1.414$ respectively. To observe total internal reflection, what will be the range of the incident angle with the axis of the optical fibre?

Light travels a distance $x$ in time $t_1$ in air and $10x$ in time $t_2$ in another denser medium. What is the critical angle for this medium?

The critical angle of a medium for a specific wavelength,if the medium has relative permittivity $3$ and relative permeability $\frac{4}{3}$ for this wavelength,will be.....$^o$

Assertion: Critical angle is minimum for violet colour.
Reason: Because critical angle $\theta_c = \sin^{-1} \left( \frac{1}{\mu} \right)$ and $\mu \propto \frac{1}{\lambda}$.
