Important Questions on Refraction Through a Prism

EASY
IMPORTANT

A ray of light passes through an equilateral glass prism in such a manner that the angle of incidence is equal to the angle of emergence and each of these angles is equal to 34th of the angle of the prism. The angle of deviation is 

EASY
IMPORTANT

If the yellow light is refracted by a prism at an angle of minimum deviation then-

EASY
IMPORTANT

A ray passes through an equilateral glass prism such that i=e, which is 3/4 of the prism angle. Then deviation will be -

EASY
IMPORTANT

The graph is plotted between the angle of deviation δ and angle of incidence i for a triangular prism is represented by which of the following:

EASY
IMPORTANT

A ray of light strikes a plane mirror at an angle of incidence 45o as shown in the figure. After reflection, the ray passes through a prism of refractive index 1.50, whose apex angle is 4o . The angle through which the mirror should be rotated if the total deviation of the ray is to be 90o is.
