Problem

A monochromatic beam of light is incident at 60∘60^\circ on one face of an equilateral prism of refractive index nn and emerges from the opposite face making an angle θ(n)\theta(n) with the normal (see the figure). For n=3n=\sqrt3 the value of θ\theta is 60∘60^\circ and dθ/dn=md\theta/dn=m. The value of mm is
