Chapter 23, Problem 70GP

A light ray in air strikes the right-angle prism shown in Figure 23.59. This ray consists of two different wavelengths. When it emerges at face AB. it has been split into two different rays that diverge from each other by 8.50°. Find the index of refraction of the prism for each of the two wavelengths.
