A light passes through glass slabv of refractive index 1.5 and thickness 2 mm. How much time ray will take to pass through the glass slab ?

A

`10^(-16) s`

B

`10^(-11) s`

C

`10^(-8)s`

D

`10^(-17)s`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B

`mu_(g) = 1.5, d_(g) = 2mm, v_(a) = 3 xx 10^(8) m//s, t_(g) = ?`
`t_(g) = (d_(g).mu_(g))/(v_(a)) = (2 xx 10^(-3) xx 1.5)/(3 xx 10^(8)) = 1 xx 10^(-11) s`
