The refractive index of a dense flint gl...

The refractive index of a dense flint glass is 1.65 and for alcohol it is 1.36 with respect to air. Find the refractive index of dense flint glass with respect to alcohol.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

`""_(al)mu_(A)=(""_(a)prop_(A))/(""_(a)prop_(al))`
`=1.65/1.36=1.21`
Refractive index of dense flint glass with respect to alcohol is 1.21.
