$A$ point source $S$ is placed at the bottom of different layers as shown in the figure. The refractive index of the bottom-most layer is $\mu_0$. The refractive index of any other upper layer is $\mu(n) = \mu_0 - \frac{\mu_0}{4n - 18}$,where $n = 1, 2, \dots$. $A$ ray of light with an angle of incidence $i$ slightly more than $30^\circ$ starts from the source $S$. Total internal reflection takes place at the upper surface of a layer having $n$ equal to

$A$ ray of laser of a wavelength $630 \, nm$ is incident at an angle of $30^{\circ}$ at the diamond-air interface. It is going from diamond to air. The refractive index of diamond is $2.42$ and that of air is $1$. Choose the correct option.

$A$ point source $S$ is placed at the bottom of a transparent block of height $h = 10 \ mm$ and refractive index $n_B = 2.72$. It is immersed in a liquid of lower refractive index $n_L$ as shown in the figure. It is found that the light emerging from the block into the liquid forms a circular bright spot of diameter $D = 11.54 \ mm$ on the top surface of the block. The refractive index of the liquid $n_L$ is:

$A$ planar structure of length $L$ and width $W$ is made of two different optical media of refractive indices $n_1=1.5$ and $n_2=1.44$ as shown in the figure. If $L \gg W$,a ray entering from end $AB$ will emerge from end $CD$ only if the total internal reflection condition is met inside the structure. For $L = 9.6 \ m$,if the incident angle $\theta$ is varied,the maximum time taken by a ray to exit the plane $CD$ is $t \times 10^{-9} \ s$,where $t$ is. . . . . . .
