JEE Mains · Physics · STD 12 - 9. Ray optics and optical instruments

A deviation of \(2^{\circ}\) is produced in the yellow ray when prism of crown and flint glass are achromatically combined. Taking dispersive powers of crown and flint glass are \(0.02\) and \(0.03\) respectively and refractive index for yellow light for these glasses are \(1.5\) and \(1.6\) respectively. The refracting angles for crown glass prism will be \(........\,^{\circ}\) (in degree) (Round off to the Nearest Integer)

  1. A \(15\)
  2. B \(10\)
  3. C \(18\)
  4. D \(12\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(D) \(12\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(\omega_{1}=0.02 ; \mu_{1}=1.5 ; \quad \omega_{2}=0.03 ; \mu_{2}=1.6\) Achromatic combination \(\therefore \theta_{\text {net }}=0\) \(\theta_{1}-\theta_{2}=0\) \(\theta_{1}=\theta_{2}\) \(\omega_{1} \delta_{1}=\omega_{2} \delta_{2}\)…
