JEE Mains · Physics · STD 12 - 9. Ray optics and optical instruments

A ray of light is incident from air on a glass plate having thickness \(\sqrt{3} \,cm\) and refractive index \(\sqrt{2}\). The angle of incidence of a ray is equal to the critical angle for glass-air interface. The lateral displacement of the ray when it passes through the plate is \(.......\times 10^{-2}\) (given \(\sin 15^{\circ}=0.26\) )

  1. A \(21\)
  2. B \(69\)
  3. C \(50\)
  4. D \(52\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(D) \(52\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(\sin c=\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}\) \(c=45^{\circ}\) \(\sin c=\mu \sin \theta\) \(\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}=\sqrt{2} \sin \theta\) \(\theta=30^{\circ}\) Lateral displacement: \(x=t \sin (i-r) \sec r\) \(x=\sqrt{3} \sin \left(45^{\circ}-30^{\circ}\right) \sec 30^{\circ}\)…
