Q.

i )An equilateral glass prism has a refractive index 1.6 in air. Calculate the angle of minimum deviation of the prism, when kept in a medium of refractive index 425.
ii )You are given three lenses L1 L2 and L3 each of focal length 15 cm. An object is kept at 20 cm in front of L1, as shown. The final real image is formed at the focus ‘I’ of L3 . Find the separations between L1 L2 and L3.

Detailed Solution

Given, A=60° (for equilateral prism)                         μ1=425, μ2=1.6 The refractive index is given by                        μ2μ1=sinA+D2sinA2 where, D=angle of minimum deviation.                      1.6×542=sin60°+D2sin60°2                        2×sin 30°=sin60°+D2                               12=sin60°+D2                          sin 45°=sin 60°+D2                              45°=60°+D2                                 D=90°-60°=30°

ii) Let 1,⨍2 and 3be the focal length of three lenses 

            for lens L1;u=20cm 11+1v1-1u11v1=115-120v1=60 cm Now for lens L3, v3=15cm, 3=15 cm, u3=? 13=1v3+1u31u3=115-115=0  u3=

 

 It shows that lens infinte. Hnce for lens L1, image is formed at a distance of 15 cm from L2  the focus of L2 i.e. u2=15 cm Now, to calculate the distance between L1 and L2, u1+H2=60+15=75 cm Distance between L2 and L3=v2+v3= or can be any value.
