STANDARD Physics Total Internal Reflection MCQ Question
Which of the following is not due to total internal reflection?
Mirage on hot summer days
Brilliance of diamond
Difference between apparent and real depth of a pond
Working of optical fiber
Correct Answer
Detailed Explanation
Apparent depth of the pond appears to be less than the real depth only because of refraction of light, but not because of total internal reflection. On the other hand, brilliance of diamond, formation of mirage on hot summer days and working of optical fiber are based on total internal reflection.
