Question
A ray of light falls normally on the surface of a transparent glass slab. Draw a ray diagram to show its path and also mark angle of incidence and angle of emergence.
Solution
As the incident light is normal to the surface thus the incidence angle will be zero which will correspond to zero degree refracted angle and zero degree emergent angle.
