(b) In the diagram, mark the angle of incidence (i) and the angle of refraction (r) at the first interface. How is the refractive index of glass related to the angles I and r?
(c) Mark angle of emergence by the letter e. How are the angles i and e related?
(d) Which two rays are parallel to each other? Name them.
(e) Indicate in the diagram the lateral displacement between the emergent ray and the incident ray.

उत्तर
(a) Diagram showing complete path of light :

(b) Angle of incidence and angle of refraction marked in the above diagram.
R.I = `"sin i"/"sin r"`
(c) Angle of emergence is marked in the above diagram.
Angle of incidence = Angle of emergence
(d) Rays IO and O'E are parallel to each other. These are incident and emergent rays respectively.
(e) In the diagram above, the lateral displacement is indicated by XY.

Trace a ray of light incident at 30° on a surface if travelling from air to glass. What is the angle of refraction in this case? (R.I. for glass = 3/2).
A ray of light strikes the surface of a rectangular glass slab such that the angle of incidence in air is
- 0°,
- 45°.
In each case, draw a diagram to show the path taken by the ray as it passes through the glass slab and emerges from it.
