AI Generated Solution

To solve the question "Lateral displacement depends on ______ of the glass slab," we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the Concept of Lateral Displacement Lateral displacement occurs when light passes through a medium, such as a glass slab. When light travels from one medium to another (like air to glass), it bends due to refraction. This bending causes the light to deviate from its original path. **Hint:** Think about what happens to light as it enters a different medium. ### Step 2: Identify the Factors Affecting Lateral Displacement ...
