$A$,$B$ and $C$ are parallel-sided transparent media of refractive indices $n_{1}$,$n_{2}$ and $n_{3}$ respectively. They are arranged as shown in the figure. $A$ ray is incident at an angle $i$ on the surface of separation of $A$ and $B$. After refraction into medium $B$,the ray grazes the surface of separation of media $B$ and $C$. Then,$\sin i$ equals to

  • A
    $\frac{n_{3}}{n_{1}}$
  • B
    $\frac{n_{1}}{n_{3}}$
  • C
    $\frac{n_{2}}{n_{3}}$
  • D
    $\frac{n_{1}}{n_{2}}$

The wavelength of light diminishes $\mu$ times ($\mu = 1.33$ for water) in a medium. $A$ diver from inside water looks at an object whose natural colour is green. He sees the object as

If light passes near a massive object,the gravitational interaction causes a bending of the ray. This can be thought of as happening due to a change in the effective refractive index of the medium given by $n = 1 + \frac{2GM}{rc^2}$,where $r$ is the distance of the point of consideration from the centre of the mass of the massive body,$G$ is the universal gravitational constant,$M$ is the mass of the body,and $c$ is the speed of light in vacuum. Considering a spherical object,find the deviation of the ray from the original path as it grazes the object.
