Answer:
Correct Answer: 117.(c)
Solution:
Formula:
- We know that the angle of deviation depends upon the angle of incidence. If we determine experimentally, the angles of deviation corresponding to different angles of incidence and then plot $i$ (on- $X$-axis) and $\delta$ (on- $Y$-axis), we get a curve as shown in figure.
Clearly if angle of incidence is gradually increased, from a small value, the angle of deviation first decreases, becomes minimum for a particular angle of incidence and then begins to increase.
