$A$ hemispherical vessel is completely filled with a liquid of refractive index $\mu$. $A$ small coin is kept at the lowest point $(O)$ of the vessel as shown in the figure. The minimum value of the refractive index of the liquid so that a person can see the coin from point $E$ (at the level of the vessel) is . . . . . . .

$A$ ray of light enters from air into a denser medium of refractive index $\mu = \frac{4}{3}$,as shown in the figure. The light ray undergoes total internal reflection at the adjacent surface as shown. The maximum value of angle $\theta$ should be equal to -
