A ray of light enters a glass slab at an angle 'i'. If the lateral displacement is half the thickness, and the refractive index is sqrt(3), find 'i'.
A30 degrees
B45 degrees
C60 degrees
D0 degrees
✓ Correct Answer: C — 60 degrees
Complex calculation involving Snell's law and geometry of lateral displacement for specific n.
