About the Glass Slab Practical: Tracing a Ray Through a Rectangular Glass Slab simulation
This is the CBSE Class 10 practical “to trace the path of a ray of light passing through a rectangular glass slab for different angles of incidence, measure the angles of incidence, refraction and emergence, and interpret the result”, done online the way it is done in the lab: an outline on a drawing sheet, a normal, an incident ray and four pins.
The hands-on part is the sighting. You drag pins R and S on the far side of the slab until, looking through the glass, they hide the images of P and Q; the eye-view panel shows exactly what a student sees. Your emergent ray is the line through your own pins, and the protractor is laid on your own lines — so your readings carry the same small errors a real practical file does.
