To solve the problem step by step, we will calculate the angle of deviation between red and blue light as well as the dispersive power of the prism. ### Step 1: Calculate the Refractive Index of Yellow Light The refractive index of yellow light (µy) can be approximated as the average of the refractive indices of red (µr) and blue (µb) light. Given: - µr = 1.641 (for red) - µb = 1.659 (for blue) ...
