MCQ
For an equilateral prism, it is observed that when a ray strikes grazingly at one face it emerges grazingly at the other. Its refractive index will be
  • A
    $\sqrt 3$
  • B
    $\frac{2}{\sqrt 3}$
  • $2$
  • D
    data not sufficient

Answer

Correct option: C.
$2$
c
$\mathrm{i}_{1}=\mathrm{i}_{2}=90^{\circ}, \mathrm{r}_{1}=\mathrm{r}_{2}=\frac{\mathrm{A}}{2}=30^{\circ}$

$\mu=\frac{\sin \mathrm{i}_{1}}{\sin \mathrm{r}_{1}}=2$
