What will be the minimum angle of incidence $i$ such that total internal reflection takes place at both interfaces (in $^{\circ}$)? (Given: $\mu_1 = \sqrt{2}, \mu_2 = 2, \mu_3 = \sqrt{3}$)

$A$ point source $S$ is placed at the bottom of a transparent block of height $h = 10 \ mm$ and refractive index $n_B = 2.72$. It is immersed in a liquid of lower refractive index $n_L$ as shown in the figure. It is found that the light emerging from the block into the liquid forms a circular bright spot of diameter $D = 11.54 \ mm$ on the top surface of the block. The refractive index of the liquid $n_L$ is:

In an optical fibre,the refractive index of the inner part (core) is $1.68$ and the refractive index of the outer part (cladding) is $1.44$. The numerical aperture of the fibre is ........
