Question

what is the relation between angle of incidence and shift​

Answer 1

Explanation:

Refraction occurs when the speed changes when the lights travels from one medium to another medium. If the light travels from a medium to a denser medium, the light slows down and consequently is refracted towards the normal.thus the distance by which the light has been displaced after its binding thru a glass slab is known as lateral displacement.

Lateral displacement depends upon-

thickness of glass slab

angle of incidence

refractive index of glass slab

Lateral displacement is directly proportional to the above three factors.

It is inversely proportional to the wavelength of incident light.

Answer 2

Explanation:

The lateral shift is the perpendicular distance betweenthe path of the ray of light when it emerges from the refracting medium and the path that the ray would have taken had it not been refracted. The lateral shift is where. The angle of incidence is and the angle of refraction is
