Question 36

Under which conditions does total internal reflection of light occur?

A

The light travels from a more optically dense medium to a less optically dense medium, and the angle of incidence is greater than the critical angle.

B

The light travels from a less optically dense medium to a more optically dense medium, and the angle of incidence is greater than the critical angle.

C

The light travels from a more optically dense medium to a less optically dense medium, and the angle of incidence is less than the critical angle.

D

The light travels from a less optically dense medium to a more optically dense medium, and the angle of incidence is less than the critical angle.
