Name one factor that affects the lateral displacement of light as it passes through a rectangular glass slab.


Fig shows a lens as a combination of a glass block and two prisms.

(i) Name the lens formed by the combination.

(ii) What is the line XX' called?

(iii) Complete the path of the incident ray PQ after passing through the lens.

(iv) The final emergent ray either meets XX' at a point or appears to come from a point on XX'. Label it as F, What is this point called?


Light of a single colour is passed through a liquid having a piece of glass suspended in it. On changing the temperature of liquid, at a particular temperature, the glass piece is not seen.

Why is the light of a single colour used ?


Express the refractive index μ of a medium in terms of the velocity of light.


After a robbery, if a window has been broken, there will be tiny particles of glass. Some of these will be found at the scene of the crime and some may be caught in the thief’s clothing. If the police can prove that these particles are identical, they have a strong case.
A method of doing this is to suspend the particles of glass in a special liquid. Light of a single colour is thrown through the liquid and the particles viewed through a microscope. The temperature of the liquid is then slowly altered. This alters the speed of light through the liquid (i.e., it alters the refractive index). At one particular temperature, the particles of glass disappear. It this happens at the same temperature for both sets of glass particles, they probably came from the same broken pane of glass.
Complete and copy the diagram to show how light bends when it travels from the liquid to the glass and back to the liquid, If the light slows down in the glass.


In the diagram alongside a ray of light, PQ is incident normally on one face AB of an equilateral glass prism. What is the angle of incidence at the faces AB and AC?


Complete the ray diagram showing its emergence into the air after passing through the prism.


The velocity of light in diamond is 121000 kms-1. What is its refractive index?


The diagram below shows two parallel rays A (Orange) & B (Blue) incident from air, on air-glass boundary.

  1. Copy and complete the path of the rays A and B.
  2. How do the speeds of these rays differ in glass?
  3. Are the two refracted rays in glass parallel? Give a reason.

What is lateral displacement?
