Correct Answer: Option D
Explanation

\(\frac{\text {sin i}}{\text {sin r}}\) = \(\frac{\text {velocity in air}}{\text {velocity in glass}}\)

\(\frac{\text {sin i}}{\text {sin 30}}\) = \(\frac{3 \times 10^{8}}{2 \times 10^{8}}\)

Sin i = \(\frac{3}{4}\) = 0.75

There is an explanation video available below.
