Define the term angle of deviation.


Diagrams (a) and (b) in figure below show the refraction of a ray of light of single colour through a prism and a parallel sided glass slab respectively.

  1. In each diagram, label the incident, refracted, emergent rays and the angle of deviation.
  2. In what way the direction of emergent ray in the two cases differ with respect to the incident ray? Explain your answer.

A ray of light incident at an angle of incidence i1 passes through an equilateral glass prism such that the refracted ray inside the prism is parallel to its base and emerges at an angle of emergence i2.

  1. How is the angle of emergence ‘i2’ related to the angle of incidence ‘i1’.
  2. What can you say about the angle of deviation in such a situation?

How does the angle of deviation depend on the refracting angle of the prism? 


In refraction of light through a prism, the light ray ______.


What should be the angle of incidence for a ray of light which suffers a minimum deviation of 36° through an equilateral prism?

[Hint: A = 60°, i = (A + δmin)/2]


Assertion: The light emerges from a parallel-sided glass slab in a direction perpendicular to that in which enters the glass slab.

Reason: The perpendicular distance between the original path of the incident ray and the emergent ray coming out of the glass slab is called lateral displacement of the emergent ray of light.


Draw a ray diagram showing the dispersion through a prism when a narrow beam of white light is incident on one of its refracting surfaces. Also indicate the order of the colours of the spectrum obtained.


The diagram below shows the ray OP travelling through an equilateral prism of a certain material.

  1. Calculate the value of i2, if the angle of deviation is 43°.
  2. What is the ray QS called?


Name the colour of white light which is deviated the least on passing through a prism.
