To solve the problem, we need to calculate the angle of minimum deviation (Δm) of an equilateral glass prism when it is placed in a medium with a given refractive index. Here’s a step-by-step solution: ### Step 1: Identify the given data - Refractive index of glass prism in air (μg) = 1.6 - Refractive index of the medium (μm) = \( \frac{4\sqrt{2}}{5} \) - Angle of the prism (A) = 60° (since it is an equilateral prism) ### Step 2: Use the formula for refractive index ...
