$A$ combination of two prisms,one of flint glass and another of crown glass,produces dispersion without deviation. The angle of the flint glass prism is $15^o$. The angle of the crown glass prism and the net angular dispersion will be respectively: (Given: for crown glass $\mu = 1.52, \omega = 0.02$; for flint glass $\mu = 1.65, \omega = 0.03$). (in $^o$)

One face of a prism with a refracting angle of $30^{\circ}$ is coated with silver. $A$ ray incident on the other face at an angle of $45^{\circ}$ is refracted,reflected from the silver-coated face,and retraces its path. The refractive index of the prism is:

$A$ light ray is incident on a prism of angle $A = 60^{\circ}$ and refractive index $\mu = \sqrt{2}$. The angle of incidence at which the emergent ray grazes the surface is given by:

One face of the glass prism is silver polished. $A$ light ray falls at an angle of $45^{\circ}$ on the other face. After refraction,it is subsequently reflected from the silvered face and then retraces its path. The refracting angle of the prism is $30^{\circ}$. The refractive index of the prism is
