Question

Assertion Angle of deviation depends on the angle of prism.
Reason For thin prism $\delta=(\mu-1) A$ Where $\delta=$ angle of deviation $\mu=$ refractive index, $A=$ angle of prism

• A. Both assertion and reason are true and reason is the correct explanation of assertion
• B. Both assertion and reason are true but reason is not the correct explanation of assertion
• C. Assertion is true but reason is false.
• D. Both assertion and reason are false.

Answer 1

Answer: (A)

The relation between angle of deviation $\delta$ for a thin prism an angle of prism and refractive index $(\mu)$ of material of prism is given by $\delta=(\mu-1) A$
