$A$ deviation of $2^{\circ}$ is produced in the yellow ray when prisms of crown and flint glass are achromatically combined. Taking dispersive powers of crown and flint glass as $0.02$ and $0.03$ respectively and refractive indices for yellow light for these glasses as $1.5$ and $1.6$ respectively,the refracting angle for the crown glass prism will be $........\,^{\circ}$ (in degrees) (Round off to the nearest integer).

  • A
    $15$
  • B
    $10$
  • C
    $18$
  • D
    $12$
