A ray of light traveling through air strikes a piece of diamond at an angle of incidence equal to 56 degrees. Calculate the angular separation in degrees between the red light and the violet light in the refracted ray, given that: The index of refraction of violet light ( Lamdaviolet = 400nm) in diamond is 2.46. The index of refraction of red light ( Lamdared = 700nm) in diamond is 2.41. Enter the numeric value in degrees.

The angle of separation is  

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

    The angle of incidence is  

     The refractive index of violet light  in diamond  is  

       The refractive index of red light in diamond is

      The wavelength of violet light is  

         The wavelength of red  light is  

Snell's  Law can be represented mathematically as

Where is the angle of refraction

=>      

Now considering violet light

substituting values

Now considering red light

substituting values

The angle of separation between the red light and the violet light is mathematically evaluated as

substituting values

less than one you can't create energy
