उत्तर

When the incident ray is undergoing minimum deviation the angle of incidence is equal to the angle of emergence, i.e., ∠i – ∠e

A student very cautiously traces the path of a ray through a glass slab for different values of the angle of incidence (∠i). He then measures the corresponding values of the angle of refraction (∠r) and the angle of emergence (∠e) for every value of the angle of incidence. On analysing these measurements of angles, his conclusion would be

(A) ∠i > ∠r  > ∠e

(B) ∠i = ∠e  > ∠r

(C) ∠i < ∠r  < ∠e

(D) ∠i = ∠e  < ∠r


Draw diagrams to show the refraction of light from 

  1. air to glass, and
