Why glass slab does not produce dispersion?

Glass slabs do not produce dispersion because dispersion requires different materials with varying refractive indexes to separate light into its different spectral components. Glass slabs are made of the same material throughout and do not have the necessary variation in refractive index to cause dispersion.


How does the thickness of a given slab of seafloor affect its weight?

The thicker the slab of seafloor, the more material it contains, leading to a greater weight. This weight is influenced by the density of the rock forming the seafloor. Thicker slabs of seafloor would have more mass and therefore weigh more than thinner slabs.


Is incident ray parallel to the emergent ray through two glass slab of different refractive index?

No, the incident ray and emergent ray will not be parallel if the glass slabs have different refractive indices. This is because the light rays will experience refraction at each interface as they pass through the slabs due to the change in refractive index, causing the emergent ray to be offset from the incident ray.


How much do paving slabs weigh approximately?

A standard paving slab will weigh approximately 70KG, which is about 154 pounds. Of course, it varies in weight according to the actual size of the slab, but that is what the average standard slab will weigh.


Why do the walls and doors of refrigerators and freezers contain thick slabs of polystyrene foam?

Polystyrene foam is a good insulator that helps maintain the low temperature inside the refrigerator or freezer. The thick slabs of polystyrene foam help reduce heat transfer from the outside environment, making the appliance more energy-efficient and effective at keeping the contents cold.
