Assertion: The refractive index of diamond is $\sqrt{6}$ and that of liquid is $\sqrt{3}$. If the light travels from diamond to the liquid,it will be totally internally reflected when the angle of incidence is $30^{\circ}$.
Reason: $\mu = \frac{1}{\sin C}$,where $\mu$ is the refractive index of diamond with respect to the liquid.

$A$ transparent block $A$ having refractive index $\mu_2 = 1.25$ is surrounded by another medium of refractive index $\mu_1 = 1.0$ as shown in the figure. $A$ light ray is incident on the flat face of the block with incident angle $\theta$ as shown in the figure. What is the maximum value of $\theta$ for which light suffers total internal reflection at the top surface of the block?

The critical angle for light traveling from medium $(i)$ to medium $(ii)$ is $\theta$. If the speed of light in medium $(i)$ is $v$,then the speed of light in medium $(ii)$ is:

The minimum area of the disc needed to cut off all the light coming out of water $\left(\mu_{w} = \frac{4}{3}\right)$ from a point source of light placed $7 \ m$ below the water surface is: (in $\pi \ m^2$)

$A$ vertical pencil of rays comes from the bottom of a tank filled with a liquid. When the tank is accelerated horizontally with an acceleration of $7.5\, m/s^2$,the ray is seen to be totally internally reflected by the liquid surface. What is the minimum possible refractive index of the liquid? (Take $g = 10\, m/s^2$)
