JEE MAIN - Physics (2021 - 31st August Evening Shift - No. 28)

Cross-section view of a prism is the equilateral triangle ABC in the figure. The minimum deviation is observed using this prism when the angle of incidence is equal to the prism angle. The time taken by light to travel from P (midpoint of BC) to A is ______________ $$\times$$ 10$$-$$10 s. (Given, speed of light in vacuum = 3 $$\times$$ 108 m/s and cos30$$^\circ$$ = $${{\sqrt 3 } \over 2}$$)

JEE Main 2021 (Online) 31st August Evening Shift Physics - Geometrical Optics Question 107 English
Answer
5

Explanation

i = A = 60$$^\circ$$

$${{ \delta } _{\min }}$$ = 2i $$-$$ A

= 2 $$\times$$ 60$$^\circ$$ $$-$$ 60$$^\circ$$ = 60$$^\circ$$

$$\mu = {{{{\sin }^{ - 1}}\left( {{{{\delta _{\min }} + A} \over 2}} \right)} \over {{{\sin }^{ - 1}}\left( {{A \over 2}} \right)}}$$

$$ = \sqrt 3 $$

Vprism $$ = {{3 \times {{10}^8}} \over {\sqrt 3 }}$$

AP = 10 $$\times$$ 10$$-$$2 $$\times$$ $${{\sqrt 3 } \over 2}$$

time $$ = {{5 \times {{10}^{ - 2}}} \over {3 \times {{10}^8}}} \times \sqrt 3 \times \sqrt 3 $$

= 5 $$\times$$ 10$$-$$10 sec

Ans. = 5
