उत्तर
7°, 10°
Explanation:
Dispersive power for thin prism is,
ω = `(δ_"V"-δ_"R")/(((δ_"V"+δ_"R")/2)`
∴ For values in option (A),
ω = `(10-7)/(((10+7)/2))=6/17` = 0.35
For values in option (B),
ω = `(11-8)/(((11+8)/2))=6/19` = 0.31
For values in option (C),
ω = `(16-12)/(((16+12)/2))=2/7` = 0.28
For values in option (D),
ω = `(14-10)/(((14+10)/2))=1/3` = 0.33
Thus, value of ω is maximum for prism with angles of deviations, 7°, 10°.

A ray of light travels from water to air as shown in the diagram given below :

1) Copy the diagram and complete the path of the way. Given the critical angle for water is 48°.
2) State the condition so that internal reflection occurs in the above diagram.
The figure shows a ray of light falling normally on the face AB of an equilateral glass prism having refractive index`3/2`, placed in water of refractive index `4/3`.Will this ray suffer total internal reflection on striking the face AC? Justify your answer.

Draw the diagram of a right-angled isosceles prism which is used to make an invented image erect.
A light ray does not bend at the boundary in passing from one medium to the other medium if the angle of incident is ______.
Draw diagram to illustrate the total internal reflection.
Swarali has got the following observations while doing an experiment. Answer her questions with the help of observations.
Swarali observed that the light bent away from the normal, while travelling from dense medium to rarer medium. When Swarali increased the values of angle of incidence (i), the values of angle of refraction (r) went on increasing. But at a certain angle of incidence, the light rays returned into the dense medium.
So, Swarali has some questions. Answer them –
a) Name this certain value of ‘i ’. What is the value of ‘r’ at that time ?
b) Name this process of returning of light in dense medium. Explain the process.
i) Observe the given figure and answer the following questions.
a) Identify and write the natural process shown in the figure.
b) List the phenomena which are observe in this process.
c) Redraw the diagram and show above phenomena in it.

Total internal reflection can take place only if ______.
The observation made by Swarali while doing the experiment is given below. Based on these write answers to the questions:
Swarali found that the light ray travelling from the denser medium to rarer medium goes away from the normal. If the angle of incidence (i) is raised by Swarali, the angle of refraction (r) went on increasing. However, after certain value of the angle of incidence the light ray is seen to return back into the denser medium.
Questions:
- What is the specific value of∠i called?
- What is the process of reflection of incident rays into denser medium called?
- Draw the diagrams of three observations made by Swarali.

Name the principle on the basis of which optical fibres work.
How does a ray of light bend when it travels from when it is normal to the interface of the two media.
A ray of light incident at an angle of incidence ‘i’ passes through an equilateral glass prism such that the refracted ray inside the prism is parallel to its base and emerges from the prism at an angle of emergence ‘e’.
What can you say about the value of the angle of deviation in such a situation?
