Question

A light beam is travelling from Region I to Region IV (Refer Figure). The refractive index in Regions I, II, III and IV are n0, and , respectively. The angle of incidence θ for which the beam just misses entering Region IV is
Figure:
       

Options

A.sin-1
B.sin-1
C.sin-1
D.sin-1

Solution

Total internal reflection occurs at the interface of region III and IV.
Because mediums are parallel
n0 sin θ =
sin θ = 1/8
