Question: If the refractive indices of crown glass for red, yellow and violet colours are respectively ${{\mu }_{r\,}},\,\,{{\mu }_{y}}$ and ${{\mu }_{v}}$, then the dispersive power of this glass would be



1) $\frac{{{\mu }_{v}}-{{\mu }_{y}}}{{{\mu }_{r}}-1}$
2) $\frac{{{\mu }_{v}}-{{\mu }_{r}}}{{{\mu }_{y}}-1}$
3) $\frac{{{\mu }_{v}}-{{\mu }_{y}}}{{{\mu }_{y}}-{{\mu }_{r}}}$
4) $\frac{{{\mu }_{v}}-{{\mu }_{r}}}{{{\mu }_{y}}}-1$
