A narrow beam of white light goes through a slab having parallel faces

a
the light never splits in different colours
b
the emergent beam is white
c
the light inside the slab does not split into different colours
d
the light inside the slab is white

detailed solution

Correct option is B

Refraction of light of different wavelength is shown in the figure. The light inside slab clearly splits up into different colors. The emergent ray from a single white ray is a beam of different colors, parallel to the incident ray. However the emergent beam is white, as all the light rays are parallel to incident light . No angular dispersion is observed in emergent ray.
