Answer
Reason — In the position of minimum deviation, the refracted ray inside the prism is parallel to its base, if the prism is equilateral (or the principal section of prism forms an isosceles triangle). The minimum angle of deviation is given by

The angle of prism A is given as:
- r1 - r2
- i1 + i2
- r1 + r2
- r1 / r2
The angle of deviation becomes minimum when:
- i1 = r1
- i1 = r2
- i1 = i2
- r2 = i2
In position of minimum deviation, the refracted ray inside the prism is …………… to its base:
- normal
- inclined at 45°
- parallel
- none of the above
Mention the incorrect statement:
- The angle of deviation produced by a prism depends on the colour or wavelength of the light used.
- The angle of incidence also affects the angle of deviation produced by the prism.
- In a prism as well as a parallel sided glass slab the emergent ray is parallel to the incident ray with a lateral displacement.
- The angle of deviation of prism is also affected by the material of the prism.
