Jie Rcfractiic Index of Liquids. 521 whence d=2i — A. (2) which gives the angle d, when i and A are known. From the formulas (i) and (2) a third may be obtained, which serves tocalculate the index of refraction of a prism when its refracting angle and theminimum of deviation are known. The index of… … 548. AXeasurement of tlie refractive Index of solids.—By means ofthe preceding formula (3) the refractive index of a solid may be calculatedwhen the angles A and d are known. In order to determine the angle A, the substance is cut in the form of atriangle prism, and the angle measured by means of a…
