(a)(i) The incident ray, the refracted ray, and the normal at the point of incidence, all lie in the same plane. OR The ratio of the sine of angle of incidence to the sine of angle of refraction is a constant $\frac{\text{Sin i}}{\text{Sin r}}$ = Constant

Place the triangular prism on the drawing sheet and trace the outline. Arrange two pins on one side vertically and using two other pins, determine the emergent ray on the other side. Remove the prism and. join the position of pins to meet the outline of the prism. Draw the normal at the point of incidence. Produce both the incident and the emergent rays to intersect and measure the angles of incidence I° and the deviation d°. Repeat the procedure for at least four other values of i. Plot a graph of d on the vertical axis against i on the horizontal axis. Obtain minimum deviation D as below.

n = $\frac{sin\frac{1}{2}(A+D)}{sin\frac{1}{2}A}$
= $\frac{sin\frac{1}{2}(60+D)}{sin30}$
Precautions
- neat traces
- pins fixed vertically
- Avoid parallax in reading protector

(b)(i)

(ii) n = $\frac{\text{real depth}}{\text{apparent depth}}$
apparent depth = $\frac{\text{real depth}}{n}$
= $\frac{12}{1.5}$
= 8cm
Apparent displacement = real depth - apparent depth
= 12 - 8 = 4cm
