25. Define angle of minimum deviation. For a prism of angle A 60, the angle ofminimum deviation is 30°. Calculate its refractive index of the material of theprism14]

Answer»

A ray of light is deflected twice in a prism. The sum of these deflections is thedeviation angle. When the entrance and exitanglesare equal, thedeviation angleof a ray passing through a prism will be aminimum.
