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?

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