Optics Question 828

The following data are given for a crown glass prism;refractive index for violet light $ n _{v}=1.521 $ refractive index for red light $ n _{r}=1.510 $ refractive index for yellow light $ n _{y}=1.515 $ Then the dispersive power of a parallel glass plate made of the same material is

Options:

A) 0.01

B) 0.03

0

D) 0.02

Show Answer

Answer:

Correct Answer: D

Solution:

Dispersive power $ (\Delta \omega ) $

$ =\frac{n _{v}-n _{r}}{n _{y}-1}=\frac{1.521-1.510}{1.515-1}=0.02 $
