$A$,$B$ and $C$ are parallel-sided transparent media of refractive indices $n_{1}$,$n_{2}$ and $n_{3}$ respectively. They are arranged as shown in the figure. $A$ ray is incident at an angle $i$ on the surface of separation of $A$ and $B$. After refraction into medium $B$,the ray grazes the surface of separation of media $B$ and $C$. Then,$\sin i$ equals to

  • A
    $\frac{n_{3}}{n_{1}}$
  • B
    $\frac{n_{1}}{n_{3}}$
  • C
    $\frac{n_{2}}{n_{3}}$
  • D
    $\frac{n_{1}}{n_{2}}$

Two light beams fall on a transparent material block at points $1$ and $2$ with angles $\theta_1$ and $\theta_2$ respectively,as shown in the figure. After refraction,the beams intersect at point $3$,which is exactly on the interface at the other end of the block. Given: the distance between $1$ and $2$ is $d = 4\sqrt{3} \text{ cm}$ and $\theta_1 = \theta_2 = \cos^{-1}\left(\frac{n_2}{2n_1}\right)$,where $n_2$ is the refractive index of the block and $n_1$ is the refractive index of the outside medium $(n_2 > n_1)$. Find the thickness of the block in $\text{cm}$.
