$A$ prism having refractive index $\sqrt{2}$ and refracting angle $30^{\circ}$ has one of the refracting surfaces silvered. The beam of light incident on the other refracting surface will retrace its path,if the angle of incidence is $\left[\sin \frac{\pi}{6}=0.5\right]$

$A$ prism has a refracting angle '$A$'. The second refracting surface of the prism is silvered. $A$ light ray falling on the first refracting surface with an angle of incidence '$2A$' reaches the second surface and returns back through the same path due to reflection at the silvered surface. The refractive index of the material of the prism is:

$A$ combination of two prisms,one of flint glass and the other of crown glass,produces dispersion without deviation. The angle of the flint glass prism is $15^\circ$.
