REFRACTION THROUGH GLASS SLAB: A thin glass slab is formed when a medium is isolated from its surroundings by two plane surfaces parallel to each other. Let us determine position and nature of the image formed when the slab is placed in front of an object. Lateral shift: Understanding with an Activity: Material required: plank, chart paper, clamps, scale, pencil, thin glass slab and pins. Procedure: Place a piece of chart (paper) on a plank. Clamp it. Place a glass slab in the middle of the paper. Draw border line along the edges of the slab by using a pencil. Remove it. You will get a figure of a rectangle. Name the vertices of the rectangle as A, B, C and D. Draw a perpendicular at a point on the longer side (AB) of the rectangle. Again keep the slab on paper such that it coincides with the sides of the rectangle ABCD. Take two pins. Stick them on the perpendicular line to AB. Take two more pins and stick them on the other side of the slab in such a ...
