The refractive indices of glass and diamonf with respect to air are 1.5 and 2.4 respectively. The refractive index of diamond with respect to glass is

A

0.62

B

0.9

C

1.95

D

1.6

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D
`mu_(g) = 1.5, mu_(a) = 2.4, ._(g)mu_(d) = ?`
`._(g)mu_(d) = (mu_(d))/(mu_(g)) = (2.4)/(1.5) = 1.6`
