Three transparent media of refractive indices $\mu_1, \mu_2, \mu_3$,respectively,are stacked as shown below. $A$ ray of light follows the path shown. No light enters the third medium. Then,

  • A
    $\mu_1 < \mu_2 < \mu_3$
  • B
    $\mu_2 < \mu_1 < \mu_3$
  • C
    $\mu_1 < \mu_3 < \mu_2$
  • D
    $\mu_3 < \mu_1 < \mu_2$

$A$ light ray is incident normally on one face of a right-angled prism and travels parallel to the base inside the prism. If the refractive index of the prism is $\mu$,what should be the angle $\alpha$ that the hypotenuse makes with the base so that the ray undergoes total internal reflection at the hypotenuse?

$A$ cylindrical transparent rod of refractive index $\mu = \frac{2}{\sqrt{3}}$ is surrounded by air. $A$ light ray is incident at the midpoint of one end of the rod as shown in the figure.
