A thin prism with angle \( 5^{\circ} \) of refractive index 1.72 is combined with another prism of refractive index 1.9 to produce dispersion without deviation. The angle of second prism is ___________.
Pick an option to check your answer.
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(C) \( 4^{\circ} \)
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
\( \delta_{net}=0 \)
\( \delta_{1}+\delta_{2}=0 \)
\( (\mu_{1}-1)A_{1}+(\mu_{2}-1)A_{2}=0 \)
\( A_{2}=\frac{(\mu_{1}-1)A_{1}}{(\mu_{2}-1)} \)
\( A_{2}=\frac{(1.72-1)}{(1.9-1)}\times5^{\circ}=4^{\circ} \)
\( \delta_{1}+\delta_{2}=0 \)
\( (\mu_{1}-1)A_{1}+(\mu_{2}-1)A_{2}=0 \)
\( A_{2}=\frac{(\mu_{1}-1)A_{1}}{(\mu_{2}-1)} \)
\( A_{2}=\frac{(1.72-1)}{(1.9-1)}\times5^{\circ}=4^{\circ} \)
