NEET Physics Refraction MCQ Question

Type: MCQ-numerical-Easy-Class 12

A light ray passes from air into a glass slab with a refractive index of 1.5. If the angle of incidence is 30°, what is the angle of refraction inside the glass?

A

19.5°

B

28.0°

C

33.4°

D

45.0°

Correct Answer

Option A

Detailed Explanation

Using Snell's law, n1sin(i) = n2sin(r), with n1 = 1 (air), n2 = 1.5 (glass), and i = 30°, we calculate r = sin^(-1)(sin(30°)/1.5) = 19.5°.
