Calculate dispersive power of a transparent material given by:
nv = 1.56, nr = 1.54, ny= 1.55


Given that,

nv = 1.56, nr = 1.54, ny= 1.55
Dispersive power (straight omega) = fraction numerator straight n subscript straight v space minus space straight n subscript straight R over denominator straight n subscript straight Y minus 1 end fraction space

                            equals space fraction numerator 1.56 space minus space 1.54 over denominator 1.55 space minus space 1 end fraction

equals space fraction numerator 0.02 over denominator 0.55 end fraction

equals space 0.36
