Consider a glass cube slab of dielectric bound by the planes $x=0, x=a$; $y=0, y=b$; $z=0, z=c$; with $b > a > c$. The slab is placed in air and has a refractive index of $n$. The minimum value for $n$,such that all rays entering the dielectric at $y=0$ reach $y=b$ is

An optical fibre consists of a core of refractive index $\mu_1$ surrounded by a cladding of refractive index $\mu_2 < \mu_1$. $A$ beam of light enters from air at an angle $\alpha$ with the axis of the fibre. The highest angle $\alpha$ for which the ray can travel through the fibre is:

Three rays of light,namely red $(R)$,green $(G)$ and blue $(B)$ are incident on the face $PQ$ of a right-angled prism $PQR$ as shown in the figure. The refractive indices of the material of the prism for red,green and blue wavelengths are $1.27$,$1.42$ and $1.49$ respectively. The colour of the ray$(s)$ emerging out of the face $PR$ is:
