A beam of light of wavelength `400 nm` is incident normally on a right angled prism as shown in Fig.
It is observed that light just grazes along the surface `AC` after falling on it. If refractive index `mu` of the material of prism varies with wavelength
`lamda` as `mu = 1.2 + (b)/(lamda^2)`
Calculate the value of `b and mu` of prism material for `lamda = 500 nm`. Given `theta = sin^-1 (0.625)`.
