Total internal reflection occurs when light moves from?
a dense medium to a less dense medium
air to water
water to glass
a less dense to a dense medium
Explanation
Total internal reflection (TIR) is the optical phenomenon in which waves arrive at the interface (boundary) from one medium to another (e.g., from water to air). that is from a more optically denser medium to a less optically denser medium.
