Solution

When there is greater thickness then it deviates more as it experience more refraction this is because it travels a greater length through the medium.

The lateral displacement of light depends upon the thickness of medium, such that , it will be greater if thickness is more and vice versa.
thus it increases as AD and BC increases and vice versa.
