Question

The speed of light in the 1st medium is v1 and the speed of light in the 2nd medium is v2 then (v1/v2) is equal to?​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Given The speed of light in the 1st medium is v1 and the speed of light in the 2nd medium is v2 then (v1/v2) is equal to?

• So the speed of light in first medium is v1 and speed of light in second medium is v2. We need to find v1/v2
• The speed of light consists of two mediums and this indicates the refractive index. The refractive index is denoted by the symbol n.
• So speed of light in first medium is v1
• Speed of light in second medium is v2
• Therefore the refractive index of second medium to that of first medium will be speed of light in first medium / speed of light in the second medium
• So we have n = v1/v2
