Answer :
Critical angle θc = 75° ,.
Numerical Aperture ( NA) = 0.387
Acceptance angle (θa) = 22.76°
Step-by-step Explanation :
Given : Core Refractive index ( μ1 ) = 1.50
Cladding Refractive index ( μ2 ) = 1.45
To find : Numerical aperture = ?
Acceptance angle = ?
Critical angle = ?
We know that ,
Critical angle θc is given by,
Sin(θc) = μ2 / μ1
θc = Sin−1 ( 1.45 / 1.50 )
= Sin−1 ( 0.966 )
= 75°
And ,
Numerical aperture ( NA) = ( μ1² - μ2² ) ½
Substituting the given value in above formula we get,
NA = [ ( 1.50 )² - ( 1.45 ) ² ] ½
= [ 2.25 - 2.10 ] ½
= ( 0.15 )½
= 0.387
Also ,
Acceptance angle (θa) = Sin−1 ( NA )
Substituting the value in above formula we get ,
Acceptance angle = Sin−1 (0.387)
= 22.76°
Hence the Critical angle θc = 75° ,.
Numerical Aperture ( NA) = 0.387
Acceptance angle (θa) = 22.76°
