Three prisms of crown glass,each having a prism angle of $9^o$,and two prisms of flint glass are used to make a direct vision spectroscope. What will be the angle of the flint glass prisms in degrees if the refractive index $\mu$ for flint glass is $1.60$ and $\mu$ for crown glass is $1.53$ (in $^o$)?

  • A
    $11.9$
  • B
    $16$
  • C
    $15.3$
  • D
