Question

An equilateral prism has refractive index as 1.5. The angle of deviation of the ray is 10n degrees, if a ray is incident normally on a surface. Find n.

Open in App

Solution

The ray will suffer TIR on face BC and will then hit face AC normally.

Thus, the angle of deviation of the ray is 60 degrees.
