The relative magnetic permeability of the medium is 2.5 and the relative electrical permittivity of the medium is 2.25 Compute the refractive index of the medium.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Dielectric constant ( relative permeability of the medium ) is `epsi _(r) =2.25`
Magneic permeability is `mu_(r) =2.5`
Refractive indes of the medium , `n= sqrt(epsi _r mu_r) = sqrt( 2.25 xx 2.5) = 2.37`
