उत्तर

Given:

Speed of light in glass = 2 x 105 km/s  = 2 x 108 m/s

Refractive index of glass is 

`mu_"glass" = (3 xx 10^8)/(2xx10^8) = 1.5`

Trace the path of a ray of light incident at an angle of 45° on a rectangular glass slab. Write the measure of the angle of refraction, the angle of emergence and the lateral displacement suffered by the ray as it passes through the slab. 


Four students A, B, C and D traced the paths of incident ray and the emergent ray by fixing pins P and Q for incident ray and pins R and S for emergent ray for a ray of light passing through a glass slab.

(2) B

(3) C

(4) D
