Assertion : If the angles of the base of the prism are equal, then in the position of minimum deviation, the refracted ray will pass parallel to the base of prism. Reason : In the case of minimum deviation, the angle of incidence is equal to the angle of emergence.

If the refracting angle of a prism is 60^@ and the minimum deviation is 30^@ , then the angle of incidence is

A ray of light is incident on a 60^(@) prism at the minimum deviation position. The angle of refraction at the first face (i.e. incident face) of the prism is-

A ray of light passing through a prism (mu = sqrt3) suffers minimum deviation. It is found that the angle of incidence is double the angle of refraction within the prism. Then, the angle of prism is ________ (in degrees)

An equilateral prism is placed on the prism table of a spectrometer in the position of minimum deviation. If the angle of incidence is 60º, the angle of deviation of the ray is :

A ray of light passing through a prism having refractive index sqrt2 suffers minimum deviation. It is found that the angle of incidence is double the angle of refraction within the prism. What is the angle of prism?
