Q. On a hot summer night, the refractive index of air is minimum near the ground and increase with height from the ground. When a light beam is directed horizontally, the Huygen's principle leads us to conclude that as it travels, the light beam

- goes horizontally without any deflection
- bends downwards
- bends upwards
Q.
A light ray is incident at an angle of 45∘ with the normal to a √2 cm thick plate (μ=2.0). Find the shift in the path of the light as it emerges out from the plate.
Q.
A diverging beam of light from a point source S having divergence angle a, 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 n, then the divergence angle of the emergent beam is
