← ScienceWhich consequence results when exceeding the Snell's Law limit?
A)Total internal reflection occurs✓
B)Diffraction patterns become amplified
C)Refraction indices increase linearly
D)Wave frequency decreases dramatically
💡 Explanation
Total internal reflection results because the angle of incidence exceeds the critical angle; therefore, all light reflects back into the denser medium due to the refraction mechanism, rather than passing through the boundary as implied by the original incident wave.
