PhysicsWave OpticsMHT CET

For passage of monochromatic beam of light in a medium of refractive index , the plane wavefront makes an angle of with the refracting surface. The ratio of the width of beam in medium to that in air is

Answer: (B)

Solution

The angle between the wavefront and the surface equals the angle of incidence, so and the width ratio is $
