Pick out the wrong statement from the following
- A Lateral shift increases as the angle of incidence increases
- B Lateral shift increases as the value of refractive index increases
- C Normal shift decreases as the value of refractive index increases
- D Both normal shift and lateral shift are directly proportional to the thickness of the medium
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(B) Lateral shift increases as the value of refractive index increases
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
The lateral shift, \(L_{s}=\frac{t[\sin (i-p)]}{\cos r}\) and normal shift, \(L_{N}=t\left(1-\frac{1}{\mu}\right)\)
