For the same value of angle of incidence, the angles of refraction in three media A, B and C are `15^(@), 25^(@) and 35^(@)` respectively. In which medium would the velocity of light be minimum ?

Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To determine in which medium the velocity of light is minimum, we can analyze the relationship between the angle of refraction and the refractive index of the media. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the Relationship**: The refractive index (n) of a medium is defined by Snell's Law: \[ n = \frac{\sin(i)}{\sin(r)} ...
