Problem

A ray of light traveling in water is incident on its surface open to air. The angle of incidence is θ\theta , which is less than the critical angle. Then there will be [2007] (1) only a reflected ray and no refracted ray (2) only a refracted ray and no reflected ray (3) a reflected ray and a refracted ray and the angle between them would be less than 180∘−2θ180^\circ - 2\theta (4) a reflected ray and a refracted ray and the angle between them would be greater than 180∘−2θ180^\circ - 2\theta
