What does total internal reflection depend on?

1

Wavelength of light

2

Refractive index of both media

3

Angle of incidence only

4

Color of the object

Answer and Solution

Answer

B. Refractive index of both media

Solution:

Total internal reflection occurs when light travels from a denser medium to a rarer medium and the angle of incidence exceeds a certain critical angle, which depends on the refractive indexes of the two media.
