For refractin of light through a prism

A

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

B

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

C

There are two angles of incidence for maximum deviation.

D

Angle of minimum deviation will increase if refrative index of prism is increased keeping the outside medium unchanged.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
c,d

(A) is not true for minimum deviation.
(B) is true only if refracting side are equal.
(C) Tow angles for maximum deviation are `90^(@)` and `i_(min)` .
(D)`delta_(min)=(mu-1)A` .
