Questions  

A ray of light enters a rectangular glass slab of refractive index 3 at an angle of incidence 60°. It travels a distance of 5 cm inside the slab and emerges out of the slab. The perpendicular distance between the incident and the emergent rays is

a
53 cm
b
52 cm
c
53/2 cm
d
5 cm

detailed solution

Correct option is B

sin 60°sin r1=3 or        sin r1=sin 60°3 or        sin r1 =32×13=12 Now, sin (i1-r1) =d5 or         d = 5 sin (i1-rr) or         d = 5 sin (60°-30°) = 5 sin 30° = 52cm
