For a prism,the angle of the prism is $60^{\circ}$ and the refractive index is $\sqrt{7/3}$. The minimum possible angle of incidence so that the light ray is refracted from the second surface is (in $^{\circ}$)

The respective angles of the flint and crown glass prisms are $A'$ and $A$. They are to be used for dispersion without deviation. The ratio of their angles $A'/A$ will be:

$A$ ray of light is incident at an angle of $60^o$ on one face of a prism of angle $30^o$. The emergent ray of light makes an angle of $30^o$ with the incident ray. The angle made by the emergent ray with the second face of the prism will be....$^o$

Three thin prisms are combined as shown in the figure. The refractive indices of the crown glass for red,yellow,and violet rays are ${\mu _r}, {\mu _y}$ and ${\mu _v}$ respectively,and those for the flint glass are ${\mu _r}', {\mu _y}'$ and ${\mu _v}'$ respectively. If there is no net deviation in the yellow ray,then the ratio $A'/A$ will be:

The ratio of the angle of minimum deviation of a prism in air to that when it is dipped in water is (given $_a\mu_g = 3/2$ and $_a\mu_w = 4/3$).
