A hollow prism
Theory
The shape of a hollow prism is same
as any other glass prism except that
it is hollow. A liquid can be filled in
the prism through the hole on top.
Refraction in general
index µ= .
Refraction through a prism
Refractive index µ=
Where,
δm is the angle of minimum
deviation
A is the angle of prism (600)
Refractive index is also defined as
the ratio of velocity of light in air to
the velocity of light in any other
medium.
Procedure
Take the hollow prism, clean it &
then fill it with liquid whose
refractive index is to be
determined.
Fix a drawing sheet on the
drawing board with the help of the
drawing pins.
Place the prism on the sheet &
outline its boundary.
Using a protractor, draw a normal
to the refracting side of the prism.
Draw a line making an angle to the
normal.
Place 2 pins on the incident line
drawn.
Look for the images of the pins
from the other side of prism. Now
place 2 more pins such that they
are in line with the incident line
pins.
Remove the pins and join the
incident and emergent ray.
Repeat the above steps for
various angles of incident.
