NEET Physics Reflection MCQ Question

Type: MCQ-fact-Hard-Class 12

What occurs when the angle of incidence exceeds the critical angle for a ray transitioning from a denser to a rarer medium?

A

Total internal reflection occurs.

B

The ray refracts at 90 degrees.

C

The ray continues straight without bending.

D

The ray is absorbed by the medium.
