    Light incident on a surface separating two media is partly reflected and partly refracted as shown in the figure. Then:

    A) \[\sin \,\,i\,\,=\,\,\frac{{{\mu }_{2}}}{{{\left( \mu _{1}^{2}+\mu _{2}^{2} \right)}^{1/2}}}\]

    B) \[\tan \,\,i\,\,=\,\,\frac{{{\mu }_{1}}}{{{\mu }_{2}}}\]

    C) \[\sin \,\,i\,\,=\,\,{{\mu }_{1}}{{\mu }_{2}}\]                 

    D) \[\sin \,\,i\,\,=\,\,\frac{{{\mu }_{2}}}{{{\mu }_{1}}}\]  

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

    By theory Brewster angle \[\mu =\,\,\tan \,\,{{i}_{p}}\] \[\frac{{{\mu }_{1}}}{{{\mu }_{2}}}\,\,=\,\,\tan \,\,{{i}_{p}}\] \[\therefore \,\,\,\,\sin \,\,i\,\,=\,\,\frac{{{\mu }_{2}}}{{{(\mu _{1}^{2}\,+\,\,\mu _{2}^{2})}^{1/2}}}\]
