$A$ monochromatic beam of light is incident at $60^{\circ}$ on one face of an equilateral prism of refractive index $n$ and emerges from the opposite face making an angle $\theta(n)$ with the normal (see the figure). For $n=\sqrt{3}$ the value of $\theta$ is $60^{\circ}$ and $\frac{d \theta}{d n}=m$. The value of $m$ is

$A$ prism of refractive index $n_{1}$ and another prism of refractive index $n_{2}$ are stuck together (as shown in the figure). $n_{1}$ and $n_{2}$ depend on $\lambda$, the wavelength of light, according to the relation:
