Answer:

Hey Mate i m answering your question.

It is given that the refractive indices of water 4/3 and of glass is 5/3 .

by the formula

sini/sinr=4/3/5/3

=4/5

=0.2

Explanation:

thank u..

The critical angle is sin⁻¹(4/5).

Given,

The refractive indices of water and glass are 4/3 and 5/3 respectively.

The light is entering from glass to water.

To Find,

The critical angle.

Solution,

The denser medium is glass,

u_{g} = 5/3

The rarer medium is water,

u_{w} = 4/3

Now, applying the snell's law

u_{g}*sin i_{c} = u_{w}*sinr

Since angle r = 90

So,

5/3*sin i_{c} = 4/3

sin i_{c} = 4/5

i_{c} = sin⁻¹(4/5)

Hence, the critical angle is sin⁻¹(4/5).
