Total Internal Reflection

6.2

Total Internal Reflection

	Total Internal Reflection
	Reflection of light rays at the border of two medium when the angle of incidence in an optically denser medium is greater than the critical angle.

The critical angle, c

The maximum angle of incidence before the total internal reflection can occur

(\(r^0=90^0\))

Conditions for total internal reflection:
