$A$ ray of light is incident at an angle of incidence '$i$' on one surface of a prism of small angle '$A$' and emerges normally from the other surface. If the refractive index of the material of the prism is '$\mu$',then the angle of incidence is equal to

  • A
    $\frac{A}{2 \mu}$
  • B
    $\frac{A \mu}{2}$
  • C
    $A \mu$
  • D
    $\frac{A}{\mu}$
