$A$ spectrum is formed by a prism of dispersive power $\omega$. If the angle of deviation is $\delta$,then the angular dispersion is

  • A
    $\omega / \delta$
  • B
    $\delta / \omega$
  • C
    $1 / (\omega \delta)$
  • D
    $\omega \delta$

$A$ prism of refractive index $n_{1}$ and another prism of refractive index $n_{2}$ are stuck together (as shown in the figure). $n_{1}$ and $n_{2}$ depend on $\lambda$, the wavelength of light, according to the relation:
${n}_{1}=1.2+\frac{10.8 \times 10^{-14}}{\lambda^{2}} \text{ and } {n}_{2}=1.45+\frac{1.8 \times 10^{-14}}{\lambda^{2}}$
The wavelength for which rays incident at any angle on the interface $BC$ pass through without bending at that interface will be $....\,nm.$
