$A$ yellow light undergoes minimum deviation through a prism. If $i_1$ and $i_2$ are the angle of incidence and the angle of emergence respectively,then:

  • A
    $i_1 = i_2$
  • B
    $i_1 > i_2$
  • C
    $i_1 < i_2$
  • D
    $i_1 + i_2 = 90^{\circ}$

$A$ 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:

An equilateral prism is placed on a horizontal surface. $A$ ray $PQ$ is incident onto it. For minimum deviation:

$A$ ray of light is incident at $60^{\circ}$ on one face of a prism of angle $30^{\circ}$ and the emergent ray makes $30^{\circ}$ with the incident ray. The refractive index of the prism is $(\sin 30^{\circ}=0.5, \sin 60^{\circ}=\sqrt{3}/2)$.

$A$ prism $(\mu=1.5)$ has a refracting angle of $30^{\circ}$. The deviation of a monochromatic ray incident normally on one of its surfaces will be (given,$\sin 48^{\circ} 36^{\prime}=0.75$):

The refractive index of a prism is $\sqrt{2}$ and the angle of the prism is $30^\circ$. One of the refracting surfaces of the prism is polished. $A$ monochromatic beam of light enters the prism and retraces its path. What is the angle of incidence at the first refracting surface of the prism in degrees (in $^\circ$)?
