Problem

Two kinds of glass have these refractive indices: Glass P: μv=1.55\mu_v=1.55, μr=1.51\mu_r=1.51 Glass Q: μv=1.66\mu_v=1.66, μr=1.60\mu_r=1.60 Both have the same mean refractive index μ=1.53\mu=1.53 for yellow light. Which glass has the greater dispersive power? a) Cannot be decided with the given data b) Glass Q only c) Glass P only d) Both are equal
