Question

The refractive index of water is 1.33 and that of kerosene is 1.44 .Calculate the refractive index of kerosene with respect to water

Answer 1

1.44/1.33=1.08 is your answer

Answer 2

N kw ( refractive index of kerosene w.r.t. water) is equal to :

nk/nw ( refractive index of kerosene /refractive index of water)

>> nkw = nk/nw

=1.44/1.33

= 0.182*
