The critical angle for light traveling from medium $(i)$ to medium $(ii)$ is $\theta$. If the speed of light in medium $(i)$ is $v$,then the speed of light in medium $(ii)$ is:

  • A
    $v(1 - \cos \theta)$
  • B
    $v/\sin \theta$
  • C
    $v/\cos \theta$
  • D
    $v(1 - \sin \theta)$

$A$ water-proof laser pointer of length $10 \,cm$ is placed in a water tank. It rotates about a horizontal axis passing through its centre of mass in a vertical plane as shown in the figure. The time period of rotation is $60 \,s$.
