Chapter 32, Problem 83GP
An optical fiber is a long transparent cylinder of diameter d and index of refraction n. If this fiber is bent sharply, some light hitting the side of the cylinder may escape rather than reflect back into the fiber (Fig. 32–65). What is the smallest radius r at a short bent section for which total internal reflection will be assured for light initially travelling parallel to the axis of the fiber?
