Question

A ray of light falls on a transparent glass slab with refractive index (relative to air) of 1.62. The angle of incidence for which the reflected and refracted rays are mutually perpendicular is: 

Solution

Correct option is

 mu equals fraction numerator sin space t over denominator sin space r space end fraction space space a n d space space t space plus space r space equals space 90 to the power of 0
o r space space space space space space r space equals space 90 space minus space t space
space space space space mu space equals space fraction numerator sin space t space over denominator sin space left parenthesis 90 space minus space t right parenthesis end fraction equals tan space t
o r space space space t equals tan to the power of negative 1 end exponent left parenthesis mu right parenthesis equals tan to the power of negative 1 end exponent left parenthesis 1.62 right parenthesis
