Question

1) Light in air is initially traveling parallel to the face AC of an equilateral triangular prism, as shown in the figure. The prism is made of glass with an index of refraction of 2.34. Which face does the light ray leave? And find the angle with respect to that face. 2) A beam of light of two different wavelengths enters a pane of glass 8.56 dm thick at an angle of incidence of 32°. The indices of refraction for the two different colors are 1.373 and 1.615. Because of dispersion, the colored beams, although parallel, are separated by a small distance. How far apart are they?
