MCQ
A ray of monochromatic light suffers minimum deviation of ${38^o}$ while passing through a prism of refracting angle ${60^o}$. Refractive index of the prism material is
  • $1.5$
  • B
    $1.3$
  • C
    $0.8$
  • D
    $2.4$

Answer

Correct option: A.
$1.5$
a
(a) $\mu = \frac{{\sin \frac{{A + {\delta _m}}}{2}}}{{\sin \frac{A}{2}}}$$ = \frac{{\sin \frac{{60 + 38}}{2}}}{{\sin \frac{{60}}{2}}}$
$ = \frac{{\sin {{49}^o}}}{{\sin {{30}^o}}}$$ = \frac{{0.7547}}{{0.5}} = 1.5$.
