Question

A ray of light enters into benzene from air . if the refractive index of benzene is 1.50 by what percent does the speed of light seduce on entering the benzene​

Answer 1

plz brainliest mark karde bhai , bahut mahenat ki hai

Answer 2

Answer:

33.3 % .

Explanation:

Given :

Refractive index of benzene = 1.50

We know :

Speed of light = 3 × 10⁸ m / sec

We know formula for n :

n = speed of light in vacuum / speed of light in benzene

n = c / v

1.5 = 3 × 10⁸ / v

v = 2 × 10⁸ m / sec

Now ,

Percentage ( % ) decrease = 1  × 10⁸ / 3  × 10⁸  × 100 %

% decrease = 33.3 % .
