Question

In case of refraction through a concave lens, the emergent ray is _____ to the incident ray.

  1. Parallel to
  2. Not perpendicular to
  3. Perpendicular to
  4. All of these

hintHint:

Refraction through a concave lens results in the perpendicular ray travelling without deviation after emerging.

The correct answer is: Not perpendicular to


    In the case of refraction through a concave lens, the emergent ray is not perpendicular to the incident ray.
    • A ray that passes through the concave lens on refraction, gets deviated from the direction of incidence.
    • The perpendicular ray travels without deviation after emerging.
    • So the emergent ray is not perpendicular to the incident ray.
