A ray PQ incident on the refracting face BA is refracted in the prism BAC as shown in the figure and emerges from the other refracting face AC as RS such that AQ = AR. If the angle of prism A = 60° and refractive index of material of prism is `sqrt3 `. Calculate angle θ.

Draw the ray diagram showing refraction of light through a glass prism and hence obtain the relation between the refractive index μ of the prism, angle of prism and angle of minimum deviation.
Describe an activity to show that the colours of white light splitted by a glass prism can be recombined to get white light by another identical glass prism. Also, draw a ray diagram to show the recombination of the spectrum of white light.
If three identical prisms are combined, is it possible to pass a beam that emerges undeviated? Undispersed?
A certain material has refractive indices 1.56, 1.60 and 1.68 rfor red, yellow and violet lightespectively. (a) Calculate the dispersive power. (b) Find the angular dispersion produced by a thin prism of angle 6° made of this material.
Three thin prisms are combined as shown in figure. The refractive indices of the crown glass for red, yellow and violet rays are μr, μy and μv respectively and those for the flint glass are μ'r, μ'y and μ'v respectively. Find the ratio A'/A for which (a) there is no net angular dispersion, and (b) there is no net deviation in the yellow ray.

The deviation produced for violet, yellow and red lights for crown glass are 3.75°, 3.25° and 2.86° respectively. Calculate the dispersive power of the crown glass.
A ray of light is incident on a prism whose refractive index is 1.52 at an angle of 40°. If the angle of emergence is 60°, calculate the angle of the prism.
Calculate dispersive power of a transparent material given : nv = 1.56, nr = 1.54, ny = 1.55.
Prove that in case of a prism, i + e = A + δ, where the symbols have their usual meanings.
