Question

State the relations between the refractive index and the critical angle

Answer 1

In Optics, The angle of incidence to which the angle of refraction is 90° is called the critical angle. The ratio of velocities of a light ray in the air to the given medium is a refractive index. Thus, the relation between the critical angle and refractive index can be established as the Critical angle is inversely proportional to the refractive index.
