Question

disscus the factor on which vertical shift due to glass slab depends​

Answer 1

Explanation:

The path followed by a reflected light which is along the path of the light faces is called lateral shift

It is calculated by the perpendicular distance between incident ray and reflected rays

This depends upon the following factors;

Thickness of the glass slab

Angle of incidence and angle of refraction, or in order words this depends on refractive index of glass slab

Answer 2

Vertical shift due to glass slab:

The shift of the incident ray from its original path when it falls on the glass slab. The shift is measured at the end of the slab and with a perpendicular line.

Vertical shift depends​ on:

• Angle of incidence and reflectance.
• Thickness of the glass slab.
• Refractive index of the denser medium in this case, the glass slab.
