Physics Question on Ray optics and optical instruments

: Angle of deviation depends on the angle of prism. : For thin prism, δ=(μ1)A\delta = (\mu - 1) A.

A

If both assertion and reason are true and reason is the correct explanation of assertion

B

If both assertion and reason are true but reason is not the correct explanation of assertion

C

If assertion is true but reason is false

D

If both assertion and reason are false

Answer

If both assertion and reason are true and reason is the correct explanation of assertion

Explanation

Solution

For a thin prism, the relation between angle of deviation, δ\delta, angle of prism A and refractive index μ\mu is δ=(μ1)A\delta = ( \mu - 1) A
