The diagram shows a ray of light in air incident on a glass block.
Some of the light is refracted, and some of the light is reflected. Two angles p and q are marked on the diagram.

Which choice gives the angle of incidence and shows whether the ray undergoes total internal A reflection?

Selecciona una de las siguientes respuestas posibles:

A angle of incidence = P; total internal reflection = no
B angle of incidence = P; total internal reflection = yes
C angle of incidence = Q; total internal reflection = no
D angle of incidence = Q; total internal reflection = yes
