For a prism of prism angle 𝜃 = 60°, the refractive indices of the left half and the right half are, respectively, 𝑛
1 and 𝑛
2 (𝑛
2 ≥ 𝑛
1) as shown in the figure. The angle of incidence 𝑖 is chosen such that the incident light rays will have minimum deviation if 𝑛
1 = 𝑛
2 = 𝑛 = 1.5. For the case of unequal refractive indices, 𝑛
1 = 𝑛 and 𝑛
2 = 𝑛 +∆𝑛 (where∆𝑛≪𝑛), the angle of emergence
\(𝑒 =𝑖+∆𝑒\). Which of the following statement(s) is (are) correct?
