Question

what is the velocity in second medium of the
velocity in first medium 9s 3x 108 m/s. Also
refractive index of second medium with respect
to first medium
4/3​

Answer 1

Answer:

Given : Velocity of medium =1.5×10

8

m/sec.

Velocity of light, c=3×10

8

m/sec.

To find : n=?

n=

v

c

n=

1.5×10

8

3×10

8

=2

n=2

Hence, the refractive index of the medium with respect to air is 2.
