State the law of reflection of light. different media have different refractiveindex. Why ? The
refractive index of glass is 1.5 What is the
meaning of this statement ?

Answers

Answered by vg592805

Answer:

The Refractive index of water is 1.3 and the refractive index of glass is 1.5. From the equation n = c/v, we know that the refractive index of a medium is inversely proportional to the velocity of light in that medium. Hence, light travels faster in water.

Water: 1.333

Air: 1.0003

Ice: 1.31

Ethyl Alcohol: 1.36
