Question

.The refractive Index of medium X with respect to medium Y is 5/4, and refractive Index of medium Y with respect to medium Z is 4/3. Calculate refractive Index of medium Z with respect to medium X.

Answer 1

Answer:

the refractive index of z w.r.t x = 3/5

Explanation:

the refractive index of x with respect to y = 5/4

the refractive index of y with respect to z = 4/3

the refractive index of z w.r.t x = 3/4 * 4/5 = 12/20 = 3/5
