The respective angles of the flint and crown glass prisms are $A'$ and $A$. They are to be used for dispersion without deviation. The ratio of their angles $A'/A$ will be:

  • A
    $-\frac{(\mu_y - 1)}{(\mu_y' - 1)}$
  • B
    $\frac{(\mu_y' - 1)}{(\mu_y - 1)}$
  • C
    $(\mu_y' - 1)$
  • D
    $(\mu_y - 1)$

Minimum deviation is observed with a prism having angle of prism $A$,angle of deviation $\delta$,angle of incidence $i$,and angle of emergence $e$. We then have generally

At what angle should a ray of light be incident on the face of a prism of refracting angle $60^{\circ}$ so that it just suffers total internal reflection at the other face? The refractive index of the material of the prism is $1.524$.

The angle of a prism is $A$ and one of its refracting surfaces is silvered. Light rays falling at an angle of incidence '$2A$' on the first surface return back through the same path after suffering reflection at the silvered surface. The refractive index of the material of the prism is

The refracting angle of a glass prism is $30^{\circ}$. $A$ ray is incident on one of the faces and is perpendicular to it. The angle of deviation $\delta$ between the incident ray and the ray that leaves the prism is (Refractive index of glass $= 1.5$) (Given: $\sin(30^{\circ}) = 0.5, \sin(48.6^{\circ}) = 0.75$).
