A diver in a swimming pool wants to signal his distress to a person lying on the edge of the pool by flashing his water proof flash light |
|
a) |
He must direct the beam vertically upwards |
b) |
He has to direct the beam horizontally |
c) |
He has to direct the beam at an angle to the vertical which is slightly less than the critical angle of incidence for total internal reflection |
d) |
He has to direction the beam at an angle to the vertical which is slightly more than the critical angle of incidence for the total internal reflection |

(c) When incident angle is greater than critical angle, then total internal reflection takes place and will come back in same medium |
