Answer:
The angle of Incidence will be greater than the angle of Refraction.
Explanation:
What is Refraction?
- Refraction is the condition where a wave's direction changes as it transitions from one medium to another due to a change in speed.
- When a wave travels from one medium to another, it bends, which is referred to as refraction.
In our case, (as shown in the figure)
- The refracted ray bends towards the normal as it enters from a rarer to denser medium when the incident ray is incident on the surface of the glass slab from air to the glass making an angle of incidence I with the normal.
- The emergent ray now bends away from the normal as it moves from glass (a denser medium) to air (a rarer medium) and forms an angle of emergence e between the emergent ray and normal after travelling the glass slab and making an angle of incidence r on the other surface of the glass slab.
- The lateral displacement is the perpendicular separation between the incident and emerging rays, which are parallel to one another.
Lateral displacement (d) = [t sin(i – r)] / cos r = t sin(i – r) sec r
Here sin(i-r) shows, the angle of incidence(i) is greater than the angle of refraction(r).
