The angle of a prism is $A$. One of its refracting surfaces is silvered. Light rays falling at an angle of incidence $2A$ on the first surface return back through the same path after suffering reflection at the silvered surface. The refractive index $\mu$ of the prism is:

$A$ combination of two prisms,one of flint glass and another of crown glass,produces dispersion without deviation. The angle of the flint glass prism is $15^o$. The angle of the crown glass prism and the net angular dispersion will be respectively: (Given: for crown glass $\mu = 1.52, \omega = 0.02$; for flint glass $\mu = 1.65, \omega = 0.03$). (in $^o$)

$A$ light ray is incident on an equilateral prism made of a material with a refractive index of $\sqrt{3}$. Inside the prism,if the light ray moves parallel to the base of the prism,then the angle of incidence of the light ray is: (in $^{\circ}$)

Monochromatic light of wavelength $6000 Å$ is incident on a small-angled prism. If the angle of the prism is $6^{\circ}$ and the refractive indices of the material of the prism for violet and red lights are $1.52$ and $1.48$ respectively, then the angle of dispersion produced for this incident light is: (in $^{\circ}$)

Which of the following diagrams correctly shows the dispersion of white light by a prism?
