$A$ small coin is resting on the bottom of a beaker filled with liquid. $A$ ray of light from the coin travels up to the surface of the liquid and moves along its surface. How fast is the light travelling in the liquid?

  • A
    $2.4 \times 10^8 \, m/s$
  • B
    $3.0 \times 10^8 \, m/s$
  • C
    $1.2 \times 10^8 \, m/s$
  • D
    $1.8 \times 10^8 \, m/s$

As shown,a narrow beam of light is incident onto a semi-circular glass cylinder of radius $R.$ Light can exit the cylinder when the beam is at the centre. When the beam is moved parallel to a distance $d$ from the central line,no light can exit the cylinder from its lower surface. Find the refractive index of the glass.

If 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

$A$ beam of light is incident from air on the surface of a liquid. The angle of incidence is $\theta$ and the angle of refraction is $\alpha$. If the critical angle for the liquid when surrounded by air is $\theta_c$,then $\sin \theta_c$ is:
