Assertion             :       The refractive index of diamond is \[\sqrt{6}\] and that of liquid is \[\sqrt{3}\]. If the light travels from diamond to the liquid, it will totally reflected when the angle of incidence is 30o. Reason                 :   \[\mu =\frac{1}{\sin C},\] where m is the refractive index of diamond with respect to liquid.  [AIIMS 2000]

B)             If both assertion and reason are true but reason is not the correct explanation of the assertion.
