The velocity of light in glass medium is...

The velocity of light in glass medium is `2 xx 10^(8)m//s`. The refractive index of glass if speed of light in air is `3 xx 10^(8)m//s` is

A

`1.5`

B

`1.25`

C

`2.5`

D

`2.25`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A

`mu_(g) = (v_(a))/(v_(g)) = (3 xx 10^(8))/(2 xx 10^(8)) = 1.5`
