$A$ ray of light is incident at an angle of incidence '$i$' on one surface of a thin prism of small angle '$A$'. The ray emerges normally from the opposite surface. If the refractive index of the material of the prism is '$\mu$',the angle of incidence '$i$' is nearly equal to

  • A
    $A$
  • B
    $\frac{\mu A}{2}$
  • C
    $\mu A$
  • D
    $\frac{A}{2 \mu}$
