$A$ ray of light is incident at an angle '$i$' on one face of a prism of small angle '$A$' and emerges normally from the other surface. If '$\mu$' is the refractive index of the material of the prism,then the angle of incidence is:

  • A
    $A \mu$
  • B
    $\frac{A}{2 \mu}$
  • C
    $\frac{A \mu}{2}$
  • D
    $\mu$
