Light travels in two media $M_{1}$ and $M_{2}$ with speeds $1.5 \times 10^{8} \text{ m/s}$ and $2.0 \times 10^{8} \text{ m/s}$ respectively. The critical angle between them is.

$A$ small bulb is placed at the bottom of a tank containing water to a depth of $\sqrt{7} \; m$. The refractive index of water is $\frac{4}{3}$. The area of the surface of water through which light from the bulb can emerge out is $x \,\pi \; m^{2}$. The value of $x$ is ...............

$A$ ray of light is incident on the hypotenuse of a right-angled prism after travelling parallel to the base inside the prism. If $\mu$ is the refractive index of the material of the prism,the maximum value of the base angle for which light is totally reflected from the hypotenuse is

$A$ glass prism of refractive index $1.5$ is immersed in water (refractive index $4/3$). $A$ light beam incident normally on the face $AB$ is totally reflected to reach the face $BC$ if

View Solution

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