A ray of light travelling through rarer ...

A ray of light travelling through rarer medium is incident at very small angle i on a glass slab and after refraction its velocity is reduced by 20%. The angle of deviation

A

`i/8`

B

`i/5`

C

`i/2`

D

`(4i)/5`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B

According to question, at glass-air interface velocity is reduced by 20% of the velocity of light.
So, deviation =20% of I
= `(20xx i)/(100)=(i)/(5)`
