QAIPM-2012-Ph-1728: NEET 2012 Physics - Class 12 AIPM-2012-Ph-1728 Solution: A ray of light is incident at an angle of incidence \(i\), on…

A ray of light is incident at an angle of incidence ii, on one face of a prism of angle AA (assumed to be small) and emerges normally from the opposite face. If the refractive index of the prism is μ\mu, the angle of incidence ii is nearly equal to

Multiple Choice Options

  • A μA\mu A
  • B μA2\frac{\mu A}{2}
  • C Aμ\frac{A}{\mu}
  • D A2μ\frac{A}{2\mu}

Step-by-Step Verified Solution

For normally emerge e = 0 Therefore r 2 = 0 and r 1 = A Snell�s Law for Incident ray�s 1sin i = _ sin r 1 = _ sin A For small angle i = _ A
