The discrepancy between the theoretical and experimental value of the bench angle obtained is the difference between the two values which is -7°
The theoretical relationship between bench angle and mirror angle can be expressed thus :
- [tex] \theta_{m} = \frac{1}{2} \theta_{b} [/tex]
- [tex] \theta_{m} [/tex] = mirror angle
- [tex] \theta_{b} [/tex] = bench angle
Substituting the mirror angle into the equation :
- [tex] 20 = \frac{1}{2} \theta_{b} [/tex]
- [tex] \theta_{b} = 20[/tex]
- Theoretical angle of bench = 20°
Therefore, the discrepancy between the theoretical and measured value is the difference between the theoretical value and the experimental value, which is : (40° - 47°) = -7°
