View SolutionIf a ray of light in a denser medium strikes a rarer medium at an angle of incidence $i$,the angles of reflection and refraction are $r$ and $r^{\prime}$ respectively. If the reflected and refracted rays are at right angles to each other,the critical angle for the given pair of media is
Glass has refractive index $\mu$ with respect to air and the critical angle for a ray of light going from glass to air is $\theta$. If a ray of light is incident from air on the glass with angle of incidence $\theta$,the corresponding angle of refraction is:
Assertion: The refractive index of diamond is $\sqrt{6}$ and that of liquid is $\sqrt{3}$. If the light travels from diamond to the liquid,it will be totally internally reflected when the angle of incidence is $30^{\circ}$.
Reason: $\mu = \frac{1}{\sin C}$,where $\mu$ is the refractive index of diamond with respect to the liquid.
Reason: $\mu = \frac{1}{\sin C}$,where $\mu$ is the refractive index of diamond with respect to the liquid.
