A ray of light is incident at $30^{\circ}$ from a medium of refractive index 2 into a medium of refractive index 1 , then the angle of refraction is
  1. $30^{\circ}$
  2. $60^{\circ}$
  3. $45^{\circ}$
  4. $90^{\circ}$

Solution

By Snell's law $2 \sin 30^{\circ}=1 \sin r$ $\Rightarrow \sin r=1 \Rightarrow r=90^{\circ}$
