$A$ glass prism of refractive index $1.5$ is immersed in water (refractive index $\frac{4}{3}$) as shown in the figure. $A$ light beam incident normally on the face $AB$ is totally internally reflected at the face $AC$ to reach the face $BC$,if:

The speed of light in media $M_{1}$ and $M_{2}$ are $1.5 \times 10^{8} \text{ m/s}$ and $2 \times 10^{8} \text{ m/s}$ respectively. $A$ ray travels from medium $M_{1}$ to the medium $M_{2}$ with an angle of incidence $\theta$. The ray suffers total internal reflection. Then the value of the angle of incidence $\theta$ is

$A$ green light is incident from the water to the air-water interface at the critical angle $(\theta)$. Select the correct statement.

Consider light travelling from a medium $A$ to medium $B$ separated by a plane interface. If the light undergoes total internal reflection during its travel from medium $A$ to $B$ and the speed of light in media $A$ and $B$ are $2.4 \times 10^8 \ m/s$ and $2.7 \times 10^8 \ m/s$ respectively, then the value of critical angle is:

For a light ray to undergo total internal reflection, light must travel from $(i = \text{angle of incidence}, i_C = \text{critical angle})$
