1. Read the following sentences carefully, and choose the incorrect one ?

In refraction through a glass prism, the emergent ray is parallel to the incident ray.

The angle between incident ray and emergent ray is called “angle of deviation”.

When a ray of light passes through a prism, it bends towards the thicker part of the prism.

None of the above.

Answer: When a ray of light passes through a prism, it bends towards the thicker part of the prism.

Explanation:

Actually, in refraction through a glass prism the emergent ray is deviated from its original direction by a certain angle. And we say that light rays get deviated on passing through a glass prism. Therefore, in refraction through a glass prism, the emergent ray is not parallel to the incident ray.
