The refractive index of the material of a prism
is $\sqrt 2 $ and the angle of the prism is 30°. One
of the two refracting surfaces of the prism is
made a mirror inwards, by silver coating. A
beam of monochromatic light entering the
prism from the other face will retrace its path
(after reflection from the silvered surface) if
its angle of incidence on the prism is
600
450
300
zero
