As shown, a narrow beam of light is incident onto a semi-circular glass cylinder of radius R. Light can exit the cylinder when the beam is at the centre. When the beam is moved parallel to a maximum distance d from the central line, no light can exit the cylinder from its lower surface. Find the refractive index of the glass.

A

C

`(R)/(sqrt(R^(2)-d^(2)))`
