For refractin of light through a prism

A

For every angle of deviation there are two angle of incidence.

B

The light travelling inside an equilateral prism is necessarily parallel to the base when prism is set for minimum deviation.

C

There are two angels of incidence for maximum deviation.

D

Angle of the minimum deviation will increase if refractive index of prism is increased keeping the outside medium unchanged if`mu_(P)gtmu_(S)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B,C,D

[B] at minimum deviation `r_(1)=r_(2)=A//2` so ,ray passes parallel to base through prism.
(C)
(D) `delta=(mu-1)A`
