A narrow beam of white light enters a prism made of crown glass at a 45° incident angle, as shown in attached figure 1. At what angles, θR and θV, do the red (660 nm) and violet (410 nm) components of the light emerge from the prism? Feel free to use the table attached for the indices of refraction as a function of wavelength. How would I derive the outgoing angle as a function of the incoming angle and the index of refraction.
