A ray of light falls on a transparent right-angled isosceles prism made from a glass of refractive index 2. The incident ray falls normally on one of the equal sides of this prism. The ray will suffer

  • total internal reflection

  • Interference

  • refraction with angle of refraction 90°

  • None of the above


C.

refraction with angle of refraction 90°

Let the critical angle for air glass pair of media is given by c. 

Therefore, µ = 1sin c, 2  = 1sin c  c = 45°

By geometry, angle of incidence at hypotenuse surface of transparent right-angled  isosceles prism is 45°

Therefore, i = c = 45°

Thus, total internal reflection doesn't occur as i is not > c. And, angle of refraction is 90°.
