Question: In Example 35.6 we saw that light entering a slab with parallel sides will emerge offset, but still parallel to the incoming beam. Our assumption

In Example 35.6 we saw that light entering a slab with parallel sides will emerge offset, but still parallel to the incoming beam. Our assumption was that the index of refraction of the material did not vary with wavelength. If the slab were made of crown glass (see Fig. 35.20), what would the outgoing beam look like?
