For which colour,the refractive index of the material of prism is maximum and minimum?

Define refractive index?

Define absolute refractive index.

Derive the relation for refractive index of the material of prism when the prism is placed in minimum deviation position.

Define the term dispersion by a prism and give the reason for its occurrence .Write the formula for refractive index of the material of a prism in terms of the anle ofminimum deviation.

The refractive index of diamond is:

A ray is incident at an angle of incidence i on one surface of a prism of small angle A and emerges normally from the opposite surface. If the refractive index of the material of the prism is mu , the angle of incidence i is nearly equal to

The refracting angle of a prism is 60^@ nd the refractive index of the material of the prism is 1.732.Calculate the angle of minimum deviation.

Discuss the phenomenon of refraction through a prism and prove that for a prism: mu=(sin(A + delta_m)//2)/(sin A//2) ,where A is anle of prism, mu s refractive index of the material of prism and delta_m is the ngle of minimum deviation.

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