The glass prisms $P_{1}$ and $P_{2}$ are to be combined together to produce dispersion without deviation. The angles of the prisms $P_{1}$ and $P_{2}$ are selected as $4^{\circ}$ and $3^{\circ}$ respectively. If the refractive index of prism $P_{1}$ is $1.54,$ then that of $P_{2}$ will be

  • A
    $1.48$
  • B
    $1.58$
  • C
    $1.62$
  • D
    $1.72$

Which of the following diagrams correctly shows the dispersion of white light by a prism?

For an isosceles prism of angle $A$ and refractive index $\mu$,it is found that the angle of minimum deviation $\delta_m=A$. Which of the following options is/are correct?
[$A$] At minimum deviation,the incident angle $i_1$ and the refracting angle $r_1$ at the first refracting surface are related by $r_1=\left(i_1 / 2\right)$.
[$B$] For this prism the refractive index $\mu$ and the angle of prism $A$ are related as $A=\frac{1}{2} \cos ^{-1}(\mu / 2)$.
[$C$] For this prism,the emergent ray at the second surface will be tangential to the surface when the angle of incidence at the first surface is $i_1=\sin ^{-1}\left[\sin A \sqrt{4 \cos ^2 \frac{A}{2}-1}-\cos A\right]$.
[$D$] For the angle of incidence $i_1=A$,the ray inside the prism is parallel to the base of the prism.

$A$ 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:

The principal section of a glass prism is an isosceles triangle $ABC$ with $AB = AC$. The face $AC$ is silvered. $A$ ray of light is incident normally on the face $AB$ and after two reflections,it emerges from the base $BC$ perpendicular to the base. The angle $BAC$ of the prism is: (in $^{\circ}$)

$A$ ray is incident at an angle of incidence $i$ on one surface of a small angle prism (with angle of prism $A$) and emerges normally from the opposite surface. If the refractive index of the material of the prism is $\mu$,then the angle of incidence is nearly equal to
