Concept
Total Internal Reflection
Total Internal Reflection
occurs when a
wave traveling through a medium
hits a
boundary at an angle
greater than the
critical angle
, causing it to
reflect entirely back
into the original medium rather than
refract through the boundary
. This phenomenon is crucial in applications like fiber optics, where it allows light to be
transmitted over long distances
with
minimal loss
.
