the absolute refractive index of water is nw 1.33.justify the answer
Answers
Answer:
1.33 represents the refractive index of water with respect to the air when light enters from air to water. 2.41 represents the refractive index of diamond with respect to the air when light enters from air to diamond. refractive index of diamond with respect to water is when light enters from water to diamond.
Explanation:
pls mark me as a branliest.
Answer:
The speed of light in water is 1/1.33 times than that in air
Explanation:
if justification is needed in terms of interpretation then that is given below
The speed of light in water is 1/1.33 times than that in air
deeper meaning
the refractive index of water, 1.33, is more than that of air with refractive index 1.0003
therefore the medium - water is optically denser and thus light travels slower in water as compared to its speed in air
