shif distance of the refraction beam
Not what you're looking for?
A beam of light (from a laser) hits a transparent piece of glass of refractive index N and thickness t, at an angle theta with respect to the normal as shown in the figure. The light ray emerges from the glass parallel to the initial direction but shifted a distance sideways X.
If theta = 45 degrees, N = 1.5, and the thickness of the glass is 1 cm,
I need to determine the shift value of X in millimeters.
