7. A ray of light is incident on an equilateral glass prism placed on a horizontal table. For minimum deviation which of the following is true ?
(a) PQ is horizontal
(b) QR is horizontal
(c) RS is horizontal
(d) Either PQ or RS is
horizontal
answer (b)
Answer explanation : θ1 ,θ2 are incident Angles.
This along with the refractive index,n, decides the equation of refraction and
total internal reflection
n1Sinθ1 = n2Sinθ2
Q is measured with respect to horizontal.
If QR is green light ,then RS is yellow,orange,red and PQ is violet,indigo,blue among white light.
