The refractive index of the material of a prism is 2 and its refracting angle is \(30^{\circ}\). One of the refracting surfaces of the prism is made a mirror inwards. A beam of monochromatic light entering the prism from the other face will retrace its path after reflection from the mirrored surface if its angle of incidence on the prism is:

1. \(60^{\circ}\) 2. \(0^{\circ}\)
3. \(30^{\circ}\) 4. \(45^{\circ}\)

A biconvex lens is cut into two halves along (i) \(XOX'\) and (ii) \(YOY'\) as shown in the figure. Let \(f,f',f''\) be the focal lengths of the complete lens, of each half in case (i), and of each half in case (ii), respectively.

Choose the correct statement from the following:
1. \(f' = f,f'' =2f\) 2. \(f' = 2f, f''=f\)
3. \(f' =f, f''=f\) 4. \(f'=2f, f''=2f\)
