Physics Question on Moment Of Inertia

Consider a configuration of nn identical units, each consisting of three layers The first layer is a column of air of height h=13cmh=\frac{1}{3} cm, and the second and third layers are of equal thickness d=312cmd=\frac{\sqrt{3}-1}{2} cm, and refractive indices μ1=32\mu_1=\sqrt{\frac{3}{2}} and μ2=3\mu_2=\sqrt{3}, respectively. A light source OO is placed on the top of the first unit, as shown in the figure. A ray of light from OO is incident on the second layer of the first unit at an angle of θ=60\theta=60^{\circ} to the normal. For a specific value of nn, the ray of light emerges from the bottom of the configuration at a distance l=83cml=\frac{8}{\sqrt{3}} cm, as shown in the figure The value of nn is ______
dentical units, each consisting of three layers

Answer

The value of n is 4.
