$A$ person lives in a high-rise building at a height of $30 \ m$ on the bank of a river. Across the river is a well-lit tower of height $60 \ m$. When the person looks through a polarizer at an appropriate angle at light from the top of the tower reflecting from the river surface,he finds the intensity of light is least. If the refractive index of water is $\frac{4}{3}$,the width of the river is ...... $m$.

$A$ beam of light $AO$ is incident on a glass slab $(\mu = 1.54)$ in a direction as shown in the figure. The reflected ray $OB$ is passed through a Nicol prism. On viewing through the rotating Nicol prism,we find that $(\tan 57^{\circ} = 1.54)$.
