$A$ plane polarized blue light ray is incident on a prism such that there is no reflection from the surface of the prism. The angle of deviation of the emergent ray is $\delta=60^{\circ}$ (see Figure-$1$). The angle of minimum deviation for red light from the same prism is $\delta_{\text{min}}=30^{\circ}$ (see Figure-$2$). The refractive index of the prism material for blue light is $\sqrt{3}$. Which of the following statement$(s)$ is(are) correct?
$(A)$ The blue light is polarized in the plane of incidence.
$(B)$ The angle of the prism is $60^{\circ}$.
$(C)$ The refractive index of the material of the prism for red light is $\sqrt{2}$.
$(D)$ The angle of refraction for blue light in air at the exit plane of the prism is $60^{\circ}$.

Three prisms $1, 2$ and $3$ have the prism angle $A = 60^o$,but their refractive indices are respectively $1.4, 1.5$ and $1.6$. If $\delta_1, \delta_2, \delta_3$ be their respective angles of deviation,then:

Under minimum deviation condition in a prism,if a ray is incident at an angle $30^o$,the angle between the emergent ray and the second refracting surface of the prism is......$^o$
