- A right-angle isosceles prism is held on the surface of a liquid composed of miscible solvents A and B of refractive index n A =1.50 and n B = 1.30, respectively. The refractive index of prism is np=1.5 and that of the liquid is given by n L = C A n A +(1- C A ) n B , where C A is the percentage of solvent A in the liquid :- <img class=img-fluid question-image alt=image src=https://cdn.tardigrade.in/img/question/physics/0a76ea86659b5d71ec65131a99c21653-.png /> If θC is the critical angle at prism-liquid interface, the plot which best represents the variation of the critical angle with the precentage of solvent is:
