A ray of light incident on one refracting face of a prism of angle 750. It undergoes total internal reflection at the second face. If μ=2, the maximum angle of incidence on the first face is 

a
450
b
300
c
600
d
900

detailed solution

Correct option is A

minimum value of r2=ic is 450 as μ=2then r1 =A-r2 will be 750-450=300according to Snell's law sini1sinr1=2sini1=2sin300=12i1=450
