A ray of light falls on a transparent sphere as shown in the figure. If the final ray emerges from the sphere parallel to the horizontal diameter, then calculate the refractive index of the sphere. Consider that the sphere is kept in the air.
1. \(\sqrt{2}\) 2. \(\sqrt{3}\)
3. \(\sqrt{3 / 2}\) 4. \(\sqrt{4 / 3}\)
