An opaque sphere of radius a is just immersed in a transparent liquid as shown in figure. A point source is placed on the vertical diameter of the sphere at a distance all from the top of the sphere.One ray originating from the point source after refraction from the air liquid interface forms tangent to the sphere. The angle of refraction for that particular ray is `30^(@)`. The refractive index of the liquid is:

A

`(2)/(sqrt(3))`

B

`(3)/(sqrt(5))`

C

`(4)/(sqrt(5))`

D

`(4)/(sqrt(7))`

A transparent solid sphere of radius 2 cm and density rho floats in a transparent liquid of density 2rho kept in a beaker. The bottom of the beaker is spherical in shape with radius of curvature 8 cm and is silvered to make it concave mirror as shown in the figure.
