$A$ diverging beam of light from a point source $S$ having divergence angle $\alpha$,falls symmetrically on a glass slab as shown. The angles of incidence of the two extreme rays are equal. If the thickness of the glass slab is $t$ and the refractive index is $n$,then the divergence angle of the emergent beam is

  • A
    $Zero$
  • B
    $\alpha$
  • C
    ${\sin ^{ - 1}}(1/n)$
  • D
    $2\,{\sin ^{ - 1}}(1/n)$

$A$ glass slab of thickness $6.0 \text{ cm}$ is placed on a piece of paper on which an ink dot is marked. By how much distance would the ink dot appear to be raised (in $\text{ cm}$)? The velocity of light in glass is $2 \times 10^8 \text{ m/s}$ and that in air is $3 \times 10^8 \text{ m/s}$.

$A$ ray of light is incident normally on a glass slab of thickness $5 \ cm$ and refractive index $1.6$. The time taken by a ray to travel from the source of light to the surface of the slab is the same as the time taken to travel through the glass slab. The distance of the source from the surface is: (in $cm$)

An underwater swimmer is at a depth of $12 \, m$ below the surface of water. $A$ bird is at a height of $18 \, m$ from the surface of water,directly above his eyes. For the swimmer,the bird appears to be at a distance from the surface of water equal to ....... $m$ (Refractive index of water is $4/3$).

$A$ light ray is incident on a glass slab of thickness $4 \sqrt{3} \text{ cm}$ and refractive index $\sqrt{2}$. The angle of incidence is equal to the critical angle for the glass slab with air.
