Various optical processes are involved in the formation of a rainbow. Which of the following provides the correct order in time in which these processes occur?

$A$ glass prism of refractive index $1.5$ is immersed in water (refractive index $\frac{4}{3}$) as shown in the figure. $A$ light beam incident normally on the face $AB$ is totally internally reflected at the face $AC$ to reach the face $BC$,if:

Explain the use of optical fibre in the medical field.

Assertion $(A)$: Propagation of light through an optical fibre is due to total internal reflection taking place at the core-clad interface.
Reason $(R)$: Refractive index of the material of the core of the optical fibre is greater than that of air.

$A$ light ray falls on a rectangular glass slab as shown in the figure. If total internal reflection occurs at the vertical face of the slab at point $B$,the refractive index of glass is

$A$ point source $S$ is placed at the bottom of different layers as shown in the figure. The refractive index of the bottom-most layer is $\mu_0$. The refractive index of any other upper layer is $\mu(n) = \mu_0 - \frac{\mu_0}{4n - 18}$,where $n = 1, 2, \dots$. $A$ ray of light with an angle of incidence $i$ slightly more than $30^\circ$ starts from the source $S$. Total internal reflection takes place at the upper surface of a layer having $n$ equal to
