Question

Define lateral shift and refractive index​

Answer 1

Answer:

The sideways shift in the path of light on emerging from a refracting medium with parallel faces is called lateral shift. The perpendicular distance between the incident ray and the emergent ray gives us the lateral shift. It depends on the angle of incidence, refractive index and thickness of the refractive medium.
