An electromagnetic wave,whose wave normal makes an angle of $45^{\circ}$ with the vertical,travelling in air strikes a horizontal liquid surface. While travelling through the liquid it gets deviated through $15^{\circ}$. What is the speed of the electromagnetic wave in the liquid,if the speed of electromagnetic wave in air is $3 \times 10^8 \ m/s$? $(\sin 30^{\circ} = 0.5, \sin 45^{\circ} = \frac{1}{\sqrt{2}})$

  • A
    $\frac{\sqrt{2}}{3} \times 10^8 \ m/s$
  • B
    $1.5 \times 10^8 \ m/s$
  • C
    $2.1 \times 10^8 \ m/s$
  • D
    $2.5 \times 10^8 \ m/s$
