A crown glass prism with refractive index 6° is to be achromatized for red and blue color light with flint glass prism. What will be the angle of flint glass prism? (µr = 1.513, µr‘ = 1.645, µ2 = 1.523 and µ2‘ = 1.665, Where µr and µ2 are refractive indices of red and blue light respectively whereas, µr‘ and µ2‘ are refractive indices of red and blue light respectively for flint glass.)
(a) 1.5°
(b) 2.4°
(c) 3°
(d) 4.5°
This question was posed to me in quiz.
My question is based upon Dispersion, Fermat’s Principle & its Application in portion Optics of Engineering Physics II
