The formula to calculate the Angle of Deviation is:
\[ D = (\mu - 1) \cdot A \]
Where:
The Angle of Deviation is the angle between the incident ray and the emergent ray in the optical axis after passing through a lens or prism in optics.
Let's assume the following values:
Using the formula:
\[ D = (1.28 - 1) \cdot 0.610865238197901 \]
Evaluating:
\[ D = 0.171042266695412 \text{ rad} \]
The Angle of Deviation is 0.171042266695412 rad.
