Introduction
A prism is a
transparent
optical element
with flat,
polished
surfaces that
refract light.
Prisms can be
made from any material that is transparent including glass,
plastic and fluorite. A prism can be used to break light up into its
constituent spectral colors. Prisms can also be used to reflect
light, or to split light into components with different
polarizations.
Place the prism filled with given sample of liquid ,on the
marked outline ABC.
Now take the pins and place them on the side AC so that all
the 4 pins appear to be in same line.
Remove the prism and draw the line joining the points so
obtained.
Mark the diagram as shown in the figure.
