State the dependence of angle of deviation On the wavelength of light
Advertisements
उत्तर
The angle of deviation decreases with an increase in the wavelength of light. Thus, a prism deviates violet light the most and red light the least.

Name a prism required for obtaining a spectrum of Ultraviolet light.
A ray of light strikes the surface of a rectangular glass block such that the angle of incidence in
air is 0°.
In each case, draw diagram to show the path taken by the ray as it passes through the glass block and emerges from it.
After tracing the path of rays of light through a glass slab for three different angles of incidence, a student measured the corresponding values angle of refraction r and angle of emergence e and recorded them in the table given below:

A ray of light falls normally on the surface of a transparent glass slab. Draw a ray diagram to show its path and also mark angle of incidence and angle of emergence.
A ray of light passes from air to water. In fig. 39, which of the ray A, B, C and D is the correct refracted ray?

In the fig. name the ray which represents the correct path of light while passing through a glass block.

Why is the colour red used as a sign of danger?
In the diagram below, PQ is a ray of light incident on a rectangular glass block.

Copy the diagram and complete the path of the ray of light through the glass block. In your diagram, mark the angle of incidence by letter ‘i’ and the angle of emergence by the letter ‘e’.
Write the approximate values of speed of light in (i) air and (ii) glass. Use these values to calculate the refractive index of glass with respect to air.
