Critical angle of glass is θ 1 and the critical angle of water is θ 2 . Calculate the critical angle for water and glass surface. ( μ g = 3/2, μ w = 4/3)

Question

Critical angle of glass is &theta; 1 and the critical angle of water is &theta; 2 . Calculate the critical angle for water and glass surface. ( &mu; g = 3/2, &mu; w = 4/3)

Amit Askiitiansexpert · Answer

Dear kaushik

The critical angle is the angle of incidence above which total internal reflection occurs. The angle of incidence is measured with respect to the normal at the refractive boundary. The critical angle $θ c$ is given by:

$\theta_c = \arcsin \left( \frac{n_2}{n_1} \right),$

critical angle = arcsin(4/3 / 3/2) = 62.73 degres

Please feel free to post as many doubts on our discussion forum as you can. If you find any question Difficult to understand - post it here and we will get you the answer and detailed solution very quickly.

All the best.
