Question

Refractive index of turpentine oil is 1.47
If the speed of light in vaccum is 3x10⁸m/s. Find the Velocity of light in turpentine oil
please give the answer step by step​

Answer 1

Answer:

Speed of light in vacuum =3×10⁸m/sec. Therefore, the refractive index of Turpentine Oil is 1.47

Answer 2

Question:-

Refractive index of turpentine oil is 1.47.If the speed of light in vaccum is 3×10^8m/s.Find the velocity of light in turpentine oil.

Answer:-

Given,

$\implies$ Refractive index of turpentine oil =1.47

$\implies$ Speed of light in vaccum =3×10^8m/s

To Find,

$\implies$ Velocity of light in turpentine oil.

Calculations,

To find velocity of light in turpentine oil ,

Velocity of light in turpentine oil = $\dfrac{Speed\: of\: light \: in\:Vaccum}{Refractive\: index \:of\: turpentine\: oil}$

Now, substituing the given values,

Velocity of light in turpentine oil = $\dfrac{3×10^{8}}{1.47}$

$\implies$ $2.04×10^{8}$

So, the velocity of light in vaccum is 2.04×10^8 m/s.
