A ray of light is incident on a surface of glass slab at an angle45°. If the lateral shift produced per unit thickness is13  m, then the  angle of refraction produced at the incident surface is

Options:

Answer:
B
Solution:

Here, angle of incidencei=45°



Lateral shiftdThickness of glass slab t=13

Lateral shiftd=tsin⁡δcos⁡r=tsin⁡(i-r)cos⁡r

⇒dt=sin⁡(i-r)cos⁡r

ordt=sin⁡icos⁡r-cos⁡isin⁡rcos⁡r

ordt=sin⁡45°cos⁡r-cos⁡45°sin⁡rcos⁡r=cos⁡r-sin⁡r2cos⁡r

ordt=121-tan⁡r

or13=121-tan⁡r

ortan⁡r=1-23

orr=tan-1⁡1-23
