A light ray is incident on the surface of a sphere of refractive index $n$ at an angle of incidence $\theta_0$. The ray partially refracts into the sphere with angle of refraction $\phi_0$ and then partly reflects from the back surface. The reflected ray then emerges out of the sphere after a partial refraction. The total angle of deviation of the emergent ray with respect to the incident ray is $\alpha$. Match the quantities mentioned in $List-I$ with their values in $List-II$ and choose the correct option.
