Homework Statement
Minimal angle of deviation δm of light after passing through prism is connected with index of refraction n and inner angle of prism Φ:
If index of refraction and inner angle of prism are directly measured, determine minimal angle of deviation,
n=(1.52 ± 0.04)
Φ=(30 ± 0.02)°
The Attempt at a Solution
When having dependent variables, we use formulae x=F(a,b,c,...)
x(medium) =F(a(medium), b(medium),...)
plus forumulae for uncertainty.
My question here is, how to express delta as a function of phi and n?
Thank you
