A transparent slab of thickness d has a refractive index n(z) that increases with z. Here z is the vertical distance inside the slab, measured from the top. The slab is placed between two media with uniform refractive indices n1 and n2 (>n1) , as shown in the figure. A ray of light is incident with angle θi from medium 1 and emerges in medium 2 with refraction angle θf with a lateral displacement l.Which of the following statement (s) is (are) true?

Detailed Solution
Snell's Law , n1 sinθi= n2 sinθfLateral displacement occurs before the light emerges out in medium n2 . Hence it does not depend on medium 2.Lateral displacement depends on θi , n1 , n(z)
