Spectrometer Measurement of Prism Corresponding
A spectrometer measures the angle by refracting light through the prism and noting the emergent beams' angles, using the angular vernier scale. The refractive index n (λ) can be found by measuring the minimum deviation angle D (λ). We try to calculate the Refrative Index of the Prism for various wavelengths of the Mercury Spectrum and then plot a Dispersion and Calibration Curves using a Prism Spectrometer. This is a tube with an adjustable slit at one end and an achromatic converging lens system at the other. The height of the beam leaving the prism is t, whose base length is c whereas the.
