Draw a ray diagram to explain the term angle of deviation.
Define the term dispersion of white light.
In the formation of spectrum of white light by a prism:
which colour is deviated least?
Make two diagrams to explain refraction and dispersion.
The diagram below shows the path taken by a narrow beam of yellow monochromatic light passing through an equiangular glass prism. If the yellow light is replaced by a narrow beam of white light incident at the same angle, draw another diagram to show the passage of white light through the prism and label it to show the effect of prism on the white light.

In an experiment to trace the path of a ray of light through a triangular glass prism, a student would observe that the emergent ray

(b) is along the same direction of incident ray.
(c) gets deviated and bends towards the thinner part of the prism.
(d) gets deviated and bends towards the thicker part (base) of the prism.
