The refractive index of the material of prism `sqrt3,` then the angle of minimum deviation of prism is

A

`30^(@)`

B

`45^(@)`

C

`60^(@)`

D

`75^(@)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C

(c ) Refrctive index of the material of prism,
`mu=(sin((A+delta_(m))/2))/(sin(A/2)`
`rArrsqrt3=mu=(sin((60^(@)+delta_(m))/2))/(sin(60^(@)/2))`
`rArr sqrt3/2=sin(30^(@)+delta_(m)/2)`
