State the cause of dispersion of white light passing through a glass prism. How did Newton show that white light of sun contains seven colours using two identical glass prisms. Draw a ray diagram to show the path of light when two identical glass prisms are arranged together in inverted position with respect to each other and a narrow beam of white light is allowed to fall obliquely on one of the focus of the first prism.
The path of a ray of light passing through a glass prism is shown below:
In this diagram, the angle of prism, angle of incidence, angle of emergence and angle of deviation, respectively, have been represented by:
(A) O, Y, Z and N,
(B) P, Y, M and Z,
(C) O, X, M and Z,
(D) P, X, Z and N.
In the figure given alongside, a narrow beam of white light is shown to pass through a triangular glass prism. After passing through the prism, it produces a spectrum YX on the screen.
Why do different colours of white light bend through different angles with respect to the incident beam of light?
State the speed of light in (a) air, (b) water, and (c) glass
Answer the following:
What do you mean by dispersion? Name the different colours of light in the proper sequence in the spectrum of light.
Distinguish between an impure spectrum and a pure spectrum.
Match the Columns:
| Column ‘A’ | Column ‘B’ |
| The wavelength of red light | (a) 600 nm |
| (b) 700 nm | |
| (c) 500 nm |
State the correct sequence (1-7) of colours in the spectrum formed by the prisms A and B, shown in the following figure.
Curved mirrors have surfaces that are spherical, cylindrical, parabolic, and ellipsoid.
A prism of refractive index `sqrt2` and refracting angle A produces minimum deviation δm of a ray on one face at an angle of incidence 45°, The values of A and δm are, respectively ______.
