A paralles beam of white light falls on one face of a prism. The light emerging from the other face suffers-

A prism is made of glass of unknown refractive index. A parallel beam of light is incident on a face of the prism. By rotating the prism,the angle of minimum deviation is measured to be 40^(@) . What is the refractive index of the material of the prism? If the prism is placed in water (refractive index 1.33), predict the new angle of minimum deviation of a parallel beam of light. Refracting angle of the prism is 60^(@) .

Calculate the refracting angle of a prism (mu = sqrt2) if a ray of light incident normally on one of the face emerges from the other face just grazing it.

The refracting angle of a prism is 60^(@) and the refractive index of its material is sqrt((7)/(3)). Find the minimum angle of incidence of a ray of light falling on one refracting face of the prism such that the emerging ray will graze the other refracting face.

When waves from two coherent source of amplitudes a and b superimpose , the amplitude R of the resultant wave is given by R = sqrt(a^(2)+b^(2)+2ab cos phi). where phi is the constant phase angle between the two waves. The resultant intensity I is directly proportional to the square of the amplitude of the resultant wave i.e I prop R^(2) i.e, I prop (a^(2) +b^(2) +2ab cos phi ) For constructive interference , phi = 2n pi " ""and"" " I _("max") = (a+b)^(2) For destructive interference , phi = (2n-1) pi "and" I_("min") = (a-b)^(2) If I_(1) I_(2) are intensities from two slits of width w_(1) "and" w_(2) then I_(1)/I_(2)=w_(1)/w_(2)=a^(2)/b^(2) Light waves from two coherent sources of intensity ratio 81 : 1 produce interference.

Which mirror is to be used to obtain a parallel beam of light from a small lamp ?

A ray of light is incident at an angle of 60^(@) on a face of a prism with refracting angle 30^(@) . If the ray emerges from the other face and makes an angle of 30^(@) with the incident ray then, show that the emergent ray passes perpendicularly through the refracting surface. Determine the refractive index of the material of the prism.
