A given ray of light suffers minimum deviation in an equilateral prism P. Additional prisms Q and R of identical shape and of the same material as P are now added as shown in the figure. The ray will now suffer

Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
C
No deviation occur on interfaces 2 and 3 as there is no change in medium. However deviation at interface 4 is same as it was on interface 2 with only prism P.
