A transparent slab of thickness d has a ...

A transparent slab of thickness d has a refractive index n(z) that increases with z. Here z is the vertical distance inside the slab, measured from the top. The slab is placed between two media with uniform refractive indices `n_(1)` and `n_(2)(gtn_(1))`, `theta_(0)`, from medium 1 and emerges in medium 2 with refraction angle `theta_(t)`with a lateral displacement l.
Which of the following statement(s) is (are) true?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
ABD

For parallel slab
`n_(1) "sin"theta_(t) = n_(2) "sin"theta_(f)`
And l depends on refractive angle in slab
`therefore ` l depends on refractive index of slab and independent of `n_(2)`
