The diagram below shows two identical prisms A and B placed with their faces parallel to each other. A ray of light of single colour PQ is incident at the face of the prism A. Complete the diagram to show the path of the ray till it emerges out of the prism B.
[Hint: The emergent ray out of the prism B will be parallel to the incident ray PQ]

An object is viewed through a glass prism with its vertex pointing upwards. Draw a ray diagram to show the formation of its image as seen by the observer on the other side of the object.
A ray of light is normally incident on one face of an equilateral glass prism.
Answer the following —
(a) What is the angle of incidence on the first face of the prism?
(b) What is the angle of refraction from the first face of the prism?
(c) What will be the angle of incidence at the second face of the prism?
(d) Will the light ray suffer minimum deviation by the prism?
A ray of light incident at an angle of incidence 48° on a prism of refracting angle 60° suffers minimum deviation. Calculate the angle of minimum deviation. [ Hint — δmin = 2i - A ]
What should be the angle of incidence for a ray of light which suffers minimum deviation of 36° through an equilateral prism?[ Hint — A = 60° and i = ( A + δmin ) / 2 ]
