Detailed Solution

The lateral displacement of an emergent ray from a glass slab depends upon the thickness of the glass slab, the refractive index of the glass slab and also the angle of incidence at the glass slab.
The lateral displacement of the emergent ray increases with the increase in the thickness of the glass slab. More the refractive index of the glass slab, more will be the lateral displacement. The lateral displacement also increases with the increase in the angle of incidence at the glass slab.
