The refractive angle of prism is A. A ray is incident normally on one of the refracting faces of a prism and emerges out. If D be the deviation of the ray then refractive index of the material of the prism is—

The refractive index of a prism is sqrt(2) . A ray of light is incident on the prism grazing along one of its refracting surface. What should be the limiting angle of the prism for no emergent ray from the other face?

If the refracting angle of a prism is A, the refractive index of its material is mu and the angle of deviation of a ray of light incident normally on the first refraction face is delta , then prove that mu = sin(A + delta)/(sinA).
