A ray of light travelling in impure water is incident on a glass plate immersed in it. When the angle of incidence is $51^{\circ},$ the reflected ray is totally plane polarised. Given that refractive index of impure water is $1.4 .$ The refractive index of glaiss should be $\quad\left(\tan 51^{\circ}=1.235\right)$
