A light ray falls on a glass surface of refractive index
at an angle
. The angle between the refracted and reflected rays would be [NEET 2022]
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
B
Given, refractive index of glass surface

Angle of incidence,
Since, above situation follows Brewster's law because,


Hence, angle
is equal to polarising angle
. i.e.

By Snell's law 







Hence, angle between the refracted and reflected rays


It is also called Brewster's law.
