NEET Physics Refraction MCQ Question

Type: MCQ-numerical-Medium-Class 12

A ray of light travels from a medium with refractive index 1.5 to another medium with refractive index 1.2. If the angle of incidence is 30°, what is the angle of refraction?

A

35.3°

B

25.1°

C

40.5°

D

20.0°

Correct Answer

Option A

Detailed Explanation

Using Snell's law, n1 * sin(i) = n2 * sin(r). Substituting n1 = 1.5, n2 = 1.2, and i = 30°, we solve for r to find the angle of refraction.
