Question
A ray of light falls on the surface of a spherical glass paper weight making an angle α with the normal and is refracted in the medium at an angle β. The angle of deviation of the emergent ray from the direction of the incident ray is
Options:
A .  (α−β)
B .  2(α−β)
C .  (α−β)2
D .  (α+β)
Answer: Option B
:
B
From figure it is clear that ΔOBC is an isosceles triangle ,
Hence ∠OCB=βand emergent angle is α
Also sum of two in terior angles = exterior angle
∴δ=(α−β)+(α−β)=2(α−β)
