Kindly answer.
Q.47. The critical angle for a beam of light passing from a diamond into the air is 24.4 ° . This means that any light rays that strike the surface interface between the diamond and the air with an angle less than
24.4 ° are
(A) completely reflected.
(B) partially reflected and partially refracted.
(C) completely absorbed.
(D) partially absorbed and partially transmitted.
(E) completely transmitted.

Dear Student,critical angle is that angle for a  medium interface that when the angle larger then the critical angle then no ray will pass the medium interface.so if the ange is less than critical angle then partial reflection takes place no complete reflection .so the ray partially reflected and the partially refracted.Regards
