SECTION-I: (Maximum Marks: 18)
• This section contains SIX (06) questions.
• Each question has Four options (A), (B), (C) and (D). ONLY ONE of these four options is correct.
• For each question, choose the option corresponding to the correct answer.
• Answer to each question will be evaluated according to the following marking scheme:
Full Marks : +3 If ONLY the correct option is chosen.
Zero Marks : 0 If none of the options is chosen (i.e. the question is unanswered)
Negative Marks : –1 In all other cases.

11. Light guidance in an optical fiber can be understood by considering a structure comprising of thin
solid glass cylinder of refractive index n1 surrounded by a medium of lower refractive index n2. The
light guidance in the structure takes place due to successive total internal reflections at the
interface of the media n1 and n2 as shown the figure. All rays with the angle of incidence i less than
a particular value 𝑖 m are confirmed in the core.
Numerical Aperture (NA) of the structure is defined as sin𝑖 m
