प्रश्न
Two monochromatic rays of light are incident normally on the face AB of an isosceles right-angled prism ABC. The refractive indices of the glass prism for the two rays '1' and '2' are respectively 1.3 and 1.5. Trace the path of these rays after entering the prism.

उत्तर
Critical angle of ray 1:
`sin(c_1)=1/mu_1=1/1.3`
`=>c_1=sin^(-1)(1/1.3)=50.35^@`
Similarly, critical angle of ray 2:
`sin(c_2)=1/mu_0=1/1.52`
`=>c_2=sin^(-1)(1/1.52)=41.14^@`
Both the rays will fall on the side AC with angle of incidence (i) equal to 45°. Critical angle of ray 1 is greater than that of i. Hence, it will emerge from the prism as shown in the figure. Critical angle of ray 2 is less than that of i. Hence, it will be internally reflected as shown in the figure

"Monochromatic light should be used to produce pure spectrum". Comment on this statement.
Using the monochromatic light of the wavelength in the experimental set-up of the diffraction pattern as well as in the interference pattern where the slit separation is 1 mm, 10 interference fringes are found to be within the central maximum of the diffraction pattern. Determine the width of the single slit, if the screen is kept at the same distance from the slit in the two cases.
Assertion(A): The photoelectrons produced by a monochromatic light beam incident on a metal surface have a spread in their kinetic energies.
Reason(R): The energy of electrons emitted from inside the metal surface, is lost in collision with the other atoms in the metal.
