Three thin prisms are combined as shown in the figure. The refractive indices of the crown glass for red,yellow,and violet rays are ${\mu _r}, {\mu _y}$ and ${\mu _v}$ respectively,and those for the flint glass are ${\mu _r}', {\mu _y}'$ and ${\mu _v}'$ respectively. If there is no net deviation in the yellow ray,then the ratio $A'/A$ will be:

  • A
    $\frac{{2\left( {{\mu _v} - {\mu _r}} \right)}}{{\left( {{\mu _v}' - {\mu _r}'} \right)}}$
  • B
    $\frac{{2\left( {{\mu _y} - 1} \right)}}{{\left( {{\mu _y}' - 1} \right)}}$
  • C
    $\frac{{2\left( {{\mu _v}' - {\mu _r}'} \right)}}{{\left( {{\mu _v} - {\mu _r}} \right)}}$
  • D
    $\frac{{2\left( {{\mu _y}' - 1} \right)}}{{\left( {{\mu _y} - 1} \right)}}$

$A$ monochromatic light is incident from air on a refracting surface of a prism of angle $A = 75^{\circ}$ and refractive index $n_0 = \sqrt{3}$. The other refracting surface of the prism is coated by a thin film of material of refractive index $n$ as shown in the figure. The light suffers total internal reflection at the coated prism surface for an incidence angle of $\theta \leq 60^{\circ}$. The value of $n^2$ is:

The angle of deviation produced by a thin prism when placed in air is $\delta_1$ and that when immersed in water is $\delta_2$. The refractive indices of glass and water are $\frac{3}{2}$ and $\frac{4}{3}$ respectively. The ratio $\delta_1 : \delta_2$ is

$A$ ray of light is incident normally on one face of a $30^{\circ}-60^{\circ}-90^{\circ}$ prism of refractive index $5/3$ immersed in water of refractive index $4/3$ as shown in the figure.

When white light passes through a glass prism,one gets a spectrum on the other side of the prism. In the emergent beam,the ray which deviates the least is:

$A$ prism is made up of a material with a refractive index of $\sqrt{3}$. The angle of the prism is $A$. If the angle of minimum deviation is equal to the angle of the prism, then the value of $A$ is: (in $^{\circ}$)
