A ray of light is incident at `60^(@)` on one face of a prism of angle `30^(@)` and the emergent ray makes `30^(@)` with the incident ray. The refractive index of the prism is
A. 1.732
B. 1.414
C. 1.5
D. 1.33
Correct Answer - A
(a) Deviation of ray in prism is given by,
`delta=i+e-A`
So, `e=delta+A-i=30^(@)-60^(@)=0^(@)`
So, emergent ray will be perpendicular to face, or emergent ray will make an angle...
Correct Answer - D
(d) Refractive index of prism, µ`=(sin""((A+delta_(m))/2))/(sin(A/2))`
substituting `A=delta_(m)and µ=1.5,`
`1.5=(sinA)/(sin((A/2)))`
`(1.5)/2=cos""A/2`
`7.5=cos""A/2`
We get, A=`82^(@)`.
Correct Answer - D
(d) Critical angle, `theta_(C)=sin^(-1)(1/1.5)=41.8^(@)`
Incident angle, `i_(1)=30^(@)`
`sinr_(1)=(sini_(1))/(mu)=(sin(30^(@)))/(1.5)`
`r_(1)=19.5^(@)`
or Angle of emergence, `r_(2)=A-r_(1)=90-19.5=70.5^(@)`
Since, `r_(2)gttheta_(C)`
`therefore` The ray will not emerge from the prism.
Correct Answer - A
