A ray falls on a prism \(ABC\,(AB = BC)\) and travels as shown in figure. The least value of refractive index of material of the prism, should be
1 1.5
2 \(\sqrt{2}\)
3 1.33
4 \(\sqrt{3}\)
Explanation:
The given prism is a right angled prism and angle \(\angle L M N=45^{\circ}\). Since, the ray is suffering total internal reflection and the critical angle is the angle of incidence in the denser medium for which the angle of redfraction in the rarer medium is \(90^{\circ}\), \(i.e.\) \(C=45^{\circ}\) and \(\mu = \frac{1}{{\sin {\kern 1pt} C}} = \frac{1}{{\sin \,{{45}^ \circ }}} = \sqrt {2.} \)
