Choose the correct answer from the options given below

In the given figure,the face $AC$ of the equilateral prism is immersed in a liquid of refractive index $n$. For an incident angle of $60^{\circ}$ at the side $AC$,the refracted light beam just grazes along the face $AC$. The refractive index of the liquid is $n = \frac{\sqrt{x}}{4}$. The value of $x$ is (Given refractive index of glass $= 1.5$)

$A$ prism of crown glass with a prism angle of $9^{\circ}$ and a prism of flint glass are used to make a direct vision spectroscope. If the refractive indices of crown and flint glass are $1.40$ and $1.60$ respectively,then the refracting angle of the flint glass prism will be.....$^{\circ}$
