The refractive indices of water and galss w.r.t. air are 1.3 and 1.5 respectively. What will be the refractive index of galss with respect to water ?

A

`(1.5)/(1.3)`

B

`(1.3)/(1.5)`

C

`(1.5)/(2.6)`

D

`(2.6)/(1.5)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A
`mu_(w) = 1.3, mu_(g) = 1.5, ._(w)mu_(g) = ?`
`._(w)mu_(g) = (mu_(g))/(mu_(w)) = (1.5)/(1.3)`.
