Triangular Prism Dispersion: Refraction Angles of Red and Blue Light

2014-11-27 11:41
This applet demonstrates light refraction and dispersion through a triangular prism. With a 60° apex angle, it shows the angular deviation of red (n=1.525) and blue (n=1.535) light. It plots incident, refracted, and emergent rays, calculating incidence, refraction, and deviation angles in real-time, visually explaining light dispersion through dynamic geometry.
