  • A
    Equal to the angle of reflection
  • B
    The angle between the refracted ray and the normal
  • C
    The angle of incidence for which the refracted ray travels along the glass-air boundary
  • D

$A$ ray of light travels from an optically denser to a rarer medium. The critical angle for the two media is $C$. The maximum possible deviation of the ray will be

Assertion : In optical fibre,the diameter of the core is kept small.
Reason : This smaller diameter of the core ensures that the fibre should have incident angle more than the critical angle required for total internal reflection.
