Refraction Through a Prism
Refraction Through a Prism: Overview
This topic covers concepts, such as Prism, Deviation by Prism, Deviation versus Incident Angle Graph in Prism, Condition for Minimum Deviation in Prism, and Refractive Index Formula for Prism.
Important Questions on Refraction Through a Prism
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 of the angle of the prism. The angle of deviation is

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

A ray passes through an equilateral glass prism such that which is of the prism angle. Then deviation will be -

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

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