    The refractive indices of violet and red light are 1.54 and 1.52 respectively. If the angle of the prism is \[10{}^\circ \], the angular dispersion is

    A) \[0.02{}^\circ \]                                

    B) \[0.2{}^\circ \]

    C) \[3.06{}^\circ \]                

    D)         \[30.6{}^\circ \]

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    Given,\[{{\mu }_{V}}=1.54,\]  \[{{\mu }_{R}}=1.52,\]   \[A={{10}^{o}}\] Angular dispersion\[(\theta )=({{\mu }_{V}}-{{\mu }_{R}})A\]                 \[=(1.54-1.52)\times {{10}^{o}}\]                 \[={{0.2}^{o}}\]
