What is the minimum deviation of prism whose refractive index is three to the power half?
The minimum deviation of a prism can be calculated using the formula: δ = (n - 1)A, where δ is the minimum deviation, n is the refractive index of the prism, and A is the angle of the prism. If the refractive index of the prism is three to the power of half, or √3, and the value of A is known, the minimum deviation can be calculated using the formula.
What is the definition of angle of minimum deviation for prism?
the smallest angle between the incident and the emergent ray
Which colour of light has least critical angle?
violet has max ref index due to minimum wave length.
Deviation of incident ray and reflected ray at reflectingsurfaceiscalled?
Deviation due to reflection. This equals to twice the glancing angle.
What has the minimum critical angle- red or violet?
red
Why does the angle of deviation of a prism decreases first and then increases?
As the angle of incidence is increased, angle of deviation 'd' decreases and reaches minimum value. If the angle of incidence is further increased, the angle of deviation is increased. Let dm be the angle of minimum deviation. The refracted ray in the prism in that case will be parallel to the base.
Why should you keep the prism in minimum deviation position?
f a line is drawn parallel to the angle of incidence axis (X-axis), it cuts the graph at two points, showing that there are two values of angle of incidence for an angle of deviation. However, at the point of angle of minimum deviation, the line will be tangent to the curve showing that for minimum angle of deviation there is only one angle of incidence.
How do we know red has the longest wavelength?
since,wavelenth is inversely propotional to angle of deviation, red colour has the smalllest angle of deviation. so we can say that wave length of red colour is then longest

On what factors does deviation produced by a prism depend?
angle between two edges and angle of incidence how denser the object is
How is angle of prism and angle of deviation related?
angle of deviation = angle of prism x ( refractice index -1)
How does the angle of minimum deviation of glass prism varyif the incident voilet light is replaced with red light?
fu** ur self..... what is the angle of min devi for a violet color
What is the definition of angle of minimum deviation for prism?
the smallest angle between the incident and the emergent ray
The term angle of deviation is used in referance to?
The term angle of deviation is used in reference to a prism.
What is the angle of insolation on the winter equinox?
The value will depend on the latitude, but relative to the rest of the year it is at a minimum.
Which colour of light has least critical angle?
violet has max ref index due to minimum wave length.
Why is the value of the angle of deviation for a ray of light undergoing refraction through a glass prism different for different colour of light?
Wave length of light varies with color and due to variation of wavelength velocity varies .so different colors have different deviation
