Questions  

A ray of light incident at an angle θ on a refracting face of a prism emerges from the other face normally. If the angle of the prism is 50and the prism is made of a material of refractive index 1.5 the angle of incidence is

 

a
7.50
b
50
c
150
d
2.50

detailed solution

Correct option is A

as it is coming out normally  i2=0 then r2=0     hence r1=Afor small angle sin i1sin r1=i1r1 =μi1=μr1=1.5×5 =7.5

Refractive index of a transparent material for violet light is 1.585 and that for red light is 1.485. A thin prism is made of this material and a ray of white light is incident on one refracting surface of this prism at near normal incidence. Then ratio of angle of dispersion to the mean angle of deviation is
