Two objects with indices of refraction n1 and n2 are placed in the same liquid substance and have their critical angles measured. If experiment shows that ?c1 > ?c2, then it must also be true that

1. n1 < n2. 2. n1 > n2. 3. n1 = n2. 4.more must be known to determine the relationship between n1 and n2.
