The angle of a prism is $A$. One of its refracting surfaces is silvered. Light rays falling at an angle of incidence $2A$ on the first surface return back through the same path after suffering reflection at the silvered surface. The refractive index $\mu$ of the prism is

$A$ prism is made up of a material with a refractive index of $\sqrt{3}$. The angle of the prism is $A$. If the angle of minimum deviation is equal to the angle of the prism,then the value of $A$ is: (in $^{\circ}$)

The graph between angle of deviation $(\delta)$ and angle of incidence $(i)$ for a triangular prism is represented by :-

The path of a refracted ray of light in a prism is parallel to the base of the prism only when the

Assertion: There exist two angles of incidence for the same magnitude of deviation (except for minimum deviation) by a prism kept in air.
Reason: In a prism kept in air,a ray is incident on the first surface and emerges out of the second surface. If another ray is incident on the second surface along the path of the previous emergent ray,then this ray emerges out of the first surface along the path of the previous incident ray. This principle is called the principle of reversibility of light.
