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`

The refractive index of glass is 1.5. From a point P inside a glass block, draw rays PA, PB and PC incident on the glass air surface at an angle of incidence 30°, 42° and 60° respectively.
- In the diagram show the approximate direction of these rays as they emerge out of the block.
- What is the angle of refraction for the ray PB?
