The minimum deviation produced by a hollow prism filled with a certain liquid is found to be `30^(@)`. The light ray is also found to be refracted at angle of `30^(@)`. The refractive index of the liquid isA. `sqrt(2)`B. `sqrt(3)`C. `sqrt((3)/(2))`D. `(3)/(2)`

Answer» Correct Answer - A
For minimum angle of deviation for a prism
`A=2r, :. A=60^(@)`
Now `mu=(sin((60+30)/(2)))/(sin((60)/(2)))=(sin45^(@))/(sin30^(@))=(1)/(sqrt(2))xx(2)/(1)=sqrt(2)`
