Question

A prism (μ=1.5) has the refracting angle of 60o. The deviation of a monochromatic ray incident normally on its one surface will be (sin48o36=0.75)
  1. 36o72
  2. 20o30
  3. 18o
  4. 22o1

A
20o30
B
18o
C
22o1
D
36o72
Solution
Verified by Toppr

For a prism,
μ=sin(A+δ2)sin(A2)
1.5×0.5=sin(A+δ2)
A+δ2=48o36
δ=36o72
