In the figure given below,a ray of light travelling in a medium of refractive index $\mu$ passes through two different connected rectangular blocks of refractive indices $\mu_1$ and $\mu_2$ $(\mu_2 > \mu_1)$. The angle of incidence $\theta_1$ is increased slightly. Then,the angle $\theta_2$ is

  • A
    increases
  • B
    decreases
  • C
    remains same
  • D
    increases or decreases depending on the value of $(\mu_1 / \mu_2)$
