$A$ light ray is incident on a spherical glass surface at an angle $\alpha$ and is refracted at an angle $\beta$. What is the angle of deviation between the emergent ray and the incident ray?

  • A
    $\left( {\alpha - \beta } \right)$
  • B
    $2\left( {\alpha - \beta } \right)$
  • C
    $\left( {\alpha - \beta } \right)/2$
  • D
    $\left( {\alpha + \beta } \right)$
