For a beam of light emerging from glass into air, for which visible spectral colour the critical angle of glass will be minimum?

Answer»

Solution :The wavelength of VIOLET RAYS is the least AMONG all the visible SPECTRAL colours. If wavelength decreases, refractive index increases. Again when refractive index increases, critical angle decreases. Therefore, during refraction from GLASS to air the critical angle will be minimum for the violet ray.
