A short pulse of white light is incident from air to a glass slab at normal incidence. After travelling through the slab, the first colour to emerges is

A

blue

B

green

C

violet

D

red

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D
(d) Since `vproplamda` the light of red colour is of highest wavelength and therefore of highest speed. So, fter travelling through the slab, the red colour emerge first.
