If c is the velocity of light in vacuum,...

If `c` is the velocity of light in vacuum, then find the time taken by the light to travel through a glass plane of thickness `t` and having refractive index `mu`.

A

`(t/(muc))`

B

`tmuc`

C

`(mut)/c`

D

`(tc)/(mu)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

(c) `mu=("Velocity of light in vacuum")/("Velocity of light in glass plate")=c/(c')`
or `c'=c/(mu)`
Time taken `=("distance")/("velocity")=t/((c/(mu)))=(muf)/c`
