Answer the following questions A. The critical angle for total internal reflection at a diamond-air interface is 25 degrees. Suppose the light falls at an angle to the normal. Then, total internal reflection will occur if the incident medium is: a) air and angle < 25 degrees b) air and angle > 25 degrees c) air and angle = 25 degrees d) diameter and angle > 25 degrees e) diamond and angle < 25 degrees B. A ray of light in water (index n1) hits its surface (with air) at a critical angle for total internal reflection. Now some oil (index n2) floats in the water. The angle between the ray in the oil and the normal is: note: sin -1 (1.00), it is read as the inverse sine of one. a) sin -1 (1/n1) b) sin -1 (1/n2) c) sin -1 (1.00) d) sin -1 (n1/n2) e) sin -1 (n2/n1) C. A ray of light passes obliquely (non-zero angle) through a glass plate that has parallel faces. The emerging ray:

A. The critical angle for total internal reflection at a diamond-air interface is 25 degrees. Suppose the light falls at an angle to the normal. Then, total internal reflection will occur if the incident medium is:
a) air and angle < 25 degrees b) air and angle > 25 degrees c) air and angle = 25 degrees d) diameter and angle > 25 degrees e) diamond and angle < 25 degrees
B. A ray of light in water (index n1) hits its surface (with air) at a critical angle for total internal reflection. Now some oil (index n2) floats in the water. The angle between the ray in the oil and the normal is: note: sin -1 (1.00), it is read as the inverse sine of one.
a) sin -1 (1/n1) b) sin -1 (1/n2) c) sin -1 (1.00) d) sin -1 (n1/n2) e) sin -1 (n2/n1)
C. A ray of light passes obliquely (non-zero angle) through a glass plate that has parallel faces. The emerging ray:
a) it leans more towards the normal than the incident ray b) is reflected internally toatl c) tilts further away from normal than the incident ray d) is parallel to the incident ray but displaced laterally e) lies on the same straight line as the incident ray
