A ray of light suffers lateral displacement on passing through a parallel sided glass slab. What is the maximum possible value of lateral displacement ?

Obtian the equation for lateral displacement of light passing through a glass slab.

The lateral shift produced in a parallel sided glass slab depends on

The lateral shift produced due to parallel sided glass slab depends on

Lateral displacement of ray passing through a glass slab A ray of light is incident on a parallel sided glass slab of refractive index n and thickness t as shown in Fig. 34-2. Find the lateral displacement of the ray as it passes through the slab.

Draw a ray diagram to show the lateral shift of a ray refracted through a parallel side slab.

On what factors lateral shift of a ray on passing through a glass slab depend ?
