The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem step by step, we will use the given data and apply the relevant formulas. ### Given Data: - Dispersive power of crown glass (ω) = 0.03 - Dispersive power of flint glass (ω') = 0.05 - Difference in refractive indices for crown glass (μB - μR) = 0.015 - Difference in refractive indices for flint glass (μB' - μR') = 0.022 - Total deviation (D) = 2° ### Step 1: Write the formula for deviation without dispersion The formula for the total deviation (D) for two prisms is given by: \[ D = A(\mu - 1) + A'(\mu' - 1) \] where: - A = angle of the crown prism - A' = angle of the flint prism - μ = refractive index of crown glass - μ' = refractive index of flint glass ### Step 2: Express the refractive indices in terms of dispersive power Using the dispersive power formula: \[ \omega = \frac{\mu_B - \mu_R}{\mu - 1} \] We can rearrange this to find: \[ \mu - 1 = \frac{\mu_B - \mu_R}{\omega} \] For crown glass: \[ \mu - 1 = \frac{0.015}{0.03} = 0.5 \] For flint glass: \[ \mu' - 1 = \frac{0.022}{0.05} = 0.44 \] ### Step 3: Substitute into the deviation formula Now substitute these values back into the deviation formula: \[ 2 = A(0.5) + A'(0.44) \] ### Step 4: Rearranging the equation This gives us our first equation: \[ 2 = 0.5A + 0.44A' \] Let’s call this Equation (1). ### Step 5: Relate the angles of the prisms From the condition of no dispersion, we can write: \[ \mu_B - \mu_R = A'(\mu_B' - \mu_R') \] Substituting the known values: \[ 0.015 = A' \times 0.022 \] ### Step 6: Solve for A' From the above equation: \[ A' = \frac{0.015}{0.022} \] Calculating this gives: \[ A' \approx 0.6818 \] ### Step 7: Substitute A' back into Equation (1) Now substitute A' back into Equation (1): \[ 2 = 0.5A + 0.44(0.6818) \] Calculating the second term: \[ 0.44 \times 0.6818 \approx 0.29999 \] So we have: \[ 2 = 0.5A + 0.3 \] Rearranging gives: \[ 0.5A = 2 - 0.3 \] \[ 0.5A = 1.7 \] \[ A = \frac{1.7}{0.5} = 3.4 \] ### Step 8: Calculate A' Now substituting A back into the expression for A': \[ A' = 0.6818 \] ### Final Values - Angle of crown prism (A) ≈ 3.4° - Angle of flint prism (A') ≈ 0.6818° ### Summary The angles of the two prisms for a deviation of 2° without dispersion are: - Crown prism angle (A) ≈ 3.4° - Flint prism angle (A') ≈ 0.6818°

To solve the problem step by step, we will use the given data and apply the relevant formulas. ### Given Data: - Dispersive power of crown glass (ω) = 0.03 - Dispersive power of flint glass (ω') = 0.05 - Difference in refractive indices for crown glass (μB - μR) = 0.015 - Difference in refractive indices for flint glass (μB' - μR') = 0.022 - Total deviation (D) = 2° ...
