If `V_(g) , V_(w) and V_(d)` represent the velocities of light in glass , water and diamond respectively , then

A

`V_(g) lt V_(d) lt V_(w)`

B

`V_(w) gt V_(g) gt V_(d)`

C

`V_(d) gt V_(g) gt V_(w)`

D

`V_(w) lt V_(g) lt V_(d)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B
`V_(m) = (V_(a))/(n) therefore n_(d) gt n_(g) gt n_(w) therefore V_(w) gt V_(g) gt V_(d)`
