A rocket is launched normal to the surface of the Earth, away from the Sun, along the line joining the Sun and the Earth. The Sun is times heavier than the Earth and is at a distance times larger than the radius of the Earth. The escape velocity from Earth's gravitational field is . The minimum initial velocity required for the rocket to be able to leave the Sun-Earth system is closest to

Light guidance in an optical fiber can be understood by considering a structure comprising of thin solid glass cylinder of refractive index \(n_{1}\) surrounded by a medium of lower refractive index \(n_{2}\). The light guidance in the structure takes place due to successive total internal reflections at the interface of the media \(n_{1}\) and \(n_{2}\) as shown in the figure. All rays with the angle of incidence \(i\) less than a particular value \(i_{m}\) are confined in the medium of refractive index \(n_{1}\). The numerical aperture (NA) of the structure is defined as \(\sin i_{m}\).
