Question
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 $n$, then the divergence angle of the emergent beam is

Answer

(b) Since rays after passing through the glass slab just suffer lateral displacement hence we have angle between the emergent rays as $\alpha$
