Total reflection of light



And the total reflection of light, as shown in the figure above, the medium medium refractive index of the light is large refractive index of the light from the (here water) is small (in this case air) occurs when proceeding.

The incident angle when the angle of refraction so on continue to gradually increase the angle of incidence is 90 ° is called the critical angle. In addition, further increased the angle of incidence,

as shown in the figure above, the light will be reflected all without leaving from the water to the outside. This called total internal reflection of light.
