Answer 1

Answer:

HI GUYS,

YOUR ANSWER IS :-

Refractive index = speed of light in vacuum / speed of light in medium. Since the refractive index of diamond is more, hence the speed of light is lesser in diamond. Let speed of light in water v e  v w and in diamond be v d. Refractive index of diamond w.r.t water is say n = Speed of light in water / speed of light in diamond.

n=v w/v d

Dividing both numerator and denominator by speed of light [c] we get

n=( v w/c)÷(v d/c)=

Inverse Ratio of refractive index of water and diamond.

n= 2.42/1.33 = 1.82 (approx.)
