Discuss the phenomenon of refraction through a prism. Prove that delta = (mu -) A where the symbols have their usual meaning.

For refraction through a small angled prism, the angle of minimum deviation

A ray of light incident on one of the face of a prism as shown. After refraction through this surface ray is incident on base of the prism. The refractive index of the prism is sqrt(3) . The net deviation of the ray due to prism is

For the situations shown in figure, determine the angle by which the mirror should be rotated, so that the light ray will retrace its path after refraction through the prism and reflection from the mirror?

A ray of light is incident normally on one of the faces of a prism of apex angle 30^(@) and refractive index sqrt(2) . The angle of deviation through prism is
