  • #1
    The angular dispersion produced by a prism
    (a) increases if the average refractive index increases
    (b) increases if the average refractive index decreases
    (c) remains constant whether the average refractive index increases or decreases
    (d) has no relation with average refractive index
    digAnsr:   a
    Ans : (a) increases if the average refractive index increases
    If μ is the average refractive index and A is the angle of prism, then the angular dispersion produced by the prism is given by `` \delta =(\mu -1)A``.
