How does the angle of minimum deviation produces by a prism change with increase in :

the wavelength of incident light 


The refractive index of glass is 1.5. From a point P inside a glass block, draw rays PA, PB and PC incident on the glass air surface at an angle of incidence 30°, 42° and 60° respectively.

  1. In the diagram show the approximate direction of these rays as they emerge out of the block.
  2. What is the angle of refraction for the ray PB? 

`("Take" sin 42° =2/3)` 


Four students A, B, C and D traced the paths of incident ray and the emergent ray by fixing pins P and Q for incident ray and pins R and S for emergent ray for a ray of light passing through a glass slab.

The correct emergent ray was traced by the student: 

(1) A

(2) B

(3) C

(4) D


Name the factors on which the deviation produced by a prism depends.

 Draw a diagram to show the splitting of white light into its constituent colours.


Two parallel rays of Red and Violet travelling through the air, meet the air-glass boundary as shown in the above figure. Will their paths inside the glass be parallel? Give a reason for your answer.


The diagram shows the path of a ray of light through a rectangular glass block placed in a liquid of uniform density.

Show with the help of a ray diagram the path of the ray when incident ray normally falls on the first surface of the glass block and passes through the block and the liquid.


Trace a ray of light incident at 30° on a surface if travelling from glass to air. What is the angle of refraction in this case? (R.I. for glass = 3/2).


Calculate the velocity of light in a glass block of refractive index 1.5. (Velocity of light in air = 3 × 108 m/s)


Observe the figure and name the ray AB, ray CD, ray GH.
