A prism ABC of angle 30° has its face AC silvered. A ray of light incident at an angle of 45° at the face, AB retraces its path after refraction at face AB and reflection at face AC.The refractive index of the material of the prism is

a
1.5
b
32
c
2
d
43

detailed solution

Correct option is C

A=r+0⇒r=30o∴μ=sin  isin  r=sin45osin30o=2
