A flint glass prism and a crown glass prism are to be combined in such a way that the deviation of the mean ray is zero. The refractive index of flint and crown glasses for the mean ray are 1.620 and 1.518, respectively. If the refracting angle of the flint prism is 6.0°, what would be the refracting angle of the crown prism?

Three thin prisms are combined as shown in the figure. The refractive indices of the crown glass for red, yellow and violet rays are µr, µy and µv respectively and those for the flint glass are µr', µy' and μv' respectively. Find the ratio A'A for which (a) system produces deviation without dispersion(achromatic combination)and (b) system produces dispersion without deviation(direct vision arrangement).
