Question
Light wave enters from medium $1$ to medium $2.$ Its velocity in $2^{nd}$ medium is double from $1^{st}$. For total internal reflection the angle of incidence must be greater than.......$^o$

Answer

(a) $\frac{{{\mu _2}}}{{{\mu _1}}} = \frac{{{v_1}}}{{{v_2}}} = \frac{1}{2} \Rightarrow \frac{{{\mu _1}}}{{{\mu _2}}} = 2({\mu _1} > {\mu _2})$
For total internal reflection $_2{\mu _1} = \frac{1}{{\sin C}} \Rightarrow \frac{{{\mu _1}}}{{{\mu _2}}}$
$ = \frac{1}{{\sin C}} \Rightarrow 2 = \frac{1}{{\sin C}} \Rightarrow C = {30^o}$
So, for total (Internal reflection angle of incidence must be greater than $30°.$

A particle of mass $200 \,g$ is moving in a circle of radius $2 \,m$. The particle is just 'looping the loop'. The speed of the particle and the tension in the string at highest point of the circular path are $\left(g=10 \,ms ^{-2}\right)$
A long circular tube of length $10 \ m$ and radius $0.3 \ m$ carries a current $I$ along its curved surface as shown. A wire-loop of resistance $0.005$ ohm and of radius $0.1 \ m$ is placed inside the tube with its axis coinciding with the axis of the tube. The current varies as $I=I_0 \cos (300 t)$ where $I_0$ is constant. If the magnetic moment of the loop is $N \mu_0 I_0 \sin (300 t)$, then ' $N$ ' is
