Light enters an isosceles right triangular prism at normal incidence through face $AB$ and undergoes total internal reflection at face $BC$ as shown below. The minimum value of the refractive index of the prism is close to

Let the refractive index of a denser medium with respect to a rarer medium be $n_{12}$ and its critical angle be $\theta_C$. At an angle of incidence $A$ when light is travelling from a denser medium to a rarer medium,a part of the light is reflected and the rest is refracted,and the angle between the reflected and refracted rays is $90^o$. Angle $A$ is given by

In an optical fibre,the core and cladding are made with materials of refractive indices $1.5$ and $1.414$ respectively. To observe total internal reflection,what will be the range of the incident angle with the axis of the optical fibre?
