A beam of light composed of red and green rays is sincident obliquely at a point on the face of a retangular glass slab When coming out on the opposite parallel face, the red an green rays emerge from

A

two points propagating in two different non-parallel directions

B

two points propagating in two different parallel directions

C

one point propagating in two different directions

D

one point propagating in the same direction

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A
(a) In any medium other than air or vaccum, the velocities of different colours are different. Therefore, both red and green colours are refracted at different angles of refractions. Hence, after emerging from glass slab through opposite parallel face, they appear at two different parallel directions.
