An equilateral prism deviates a ray through $40^{\circ}$ for two angles of incidence differing by $20^{\circ}$. The possible angles of incidence are:

  • A
    $40^{\circ}, 60^{\circ}$
  • B
    $50^{\circ}, 30^{\circ}$
  • C
    $45^{\circ}, 55^{\circ}$
  • D
    $30^{\circ}, 60^{\circ}$

For a thin prism,$\delta_1$ is the angle of deviation produced when the prism is placed in air. When the prism is immersed in water,the angle of deviation produced is $\delta_2$. Given ${ }_{a} \mu_{g}=\frac{3}{2}$ and ${ }_{a} \mu_{w}=\frac{4}{3}$. The ratio $\delta_2: \delta_1$ is
