The critical angle in total internal reflection depends on the colour of the incident light.

The critical angle in total internal reflection depends on the colour of the incident light. Correct Answer True

The critical angle in total internal reflection depends on the colour of the incident light. Different lights of different colours have different wavelengths and therefore the refractive index changes, so ultimately the critical angle also changes.
