Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To calculate the speed of light in the liquid of unknown refractive index, we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the relationship between refractive index and critical angle The refractive index \( n \) of a medium can be related to the critical angle \( C \) using the formula: \[ \sin C = \frac{1}{n} \] This means that if we know the critical angle, we can find the refractive index. ...
