Draw a ray diagram to illustrate how a ray of light incident obliquely on one face of a rectangular glass slab of uniform thickness emerges.

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:
b

We kknow that in any medium except vacuum or air the velocities of different colours are different.Therefore, both red and green colours are refracted at different angles of refraction so, after emerging from glass slab through opposite paralle faces, they apperar at two different points and move in two diffeent parallel direction.
