perRACTINE INDEX OF PRISM MATERIAL, GLASS SLAB AND TRANSPARENT LIQUID 163 cere EXPERIMENT 5 To determine angle of minimum deviation for a given prism by plotti he ve ay prism by plotting a grap! getween angle of incidence and the angle of deviation. ppARATUS Drawing board, a white sheet of paper, office pins, graph paper and a protractor. THEORY The refractive index (n) of the material of the prism is given by : (4220) sin( 4+ 2m 2 “( where, D,, angle of minimum deviation and A angle of the prism. prism, drawing pins, pencil, half-metre scale, n= DIAGRAM x! Fig. Refraction through prism at different angles. PROCEDURE 1. Fix a white sheet of paper on the drawing board with the help of drawing pins or tape.

Draw straight lines R,Qy, RQ, RjQ» -- making angles of a + 40°, ... 60° (write value of the angles on the paper) respectively with the normals. i Mark one corner of the prism as A and take it as the edge of the prism for all th, observations. : oo : Put it prism with its refracting face AB in the line XX’ and point Q, in the middle o [ Pe ape a Mark the boundary of the prism. : Fix two or more office pin P, and P, vertically on the line R,Q,. The distance between the pins should be 10 mm or more. 10. Look the images of point P, and P, through face AC. 11. Close your left eye and bring open right eye in line with the two images. 12. Fix two office pins P, and P, vertically, and 10 cm apart such that the open right eye sees pins P, and P, and images of P, and P, in one straight line. 13. Remove pins P, and P, and encircle their pricks on the paper. 14, Repeat steps 7 to 13 with points Q,, Q,, ... for i = 40°, .... 60°. % To measure D in different cases 15. Draw straight lines through points P, and P, (pin pricks) to obtain emergent rays S,T,, SjTq, S3Ty» -- 16.
