n1 medium One that is glass refrative index.
n2 refractive index of air which is equal to 1.
putting it into the formula
angle=
=41.8 degree.
this is called critical angle, angle a which light gets reflected in the same medium from which it comes.
the above equation comes from snell's law of refraction.
