JEE Advanced 2026 MCQ

A beam of polychromatic light passes through a thin prism of prism angle $6^{\circ}$. The refractive index of the material of the prism varies with wavelength $(\lambda)$ as $n(\lambda) = \alpha \lambda + \frac{\beta}{\lambda^2}$, where $\alpha = 3\ \mu m^{-1}$ and $\beta = 0.096\ \mu m^2$. If $\lambda_{min}$ is the wavelength at which the angle of minimum deviation $D_m$ is smallest, then the correct value of $D_m$ at $\lambda_{min}$ is :
