NEET Physics Refraction MCQ Question
Type: MCQ-fact-Hard-Class 12
What happens to the angle of refraction when the angle of incidence exceeds the critical angle?
A
No refraction occurs.
B
Refraction increases significantly.
C
Refraction becomes equal to the angle of incidence.
D
Light is absorbed completely.
Correct Answer
Option A
Detailed Explanation
When the angle of incidence exceeds the critical angle, Snell’s law cannot be satisfied, and hence no refraction occurs, leading to total internal reflection.
