The speed of the yellow light in a certa...

The speed of the yellow light in a certain liquid is` 2.4 x 10 8 ms^-1`. Find the refractive index of the liquid.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A, B

`mu_1=(1xx3xx10^8)/((304)xx10^8)=1.25`
`[since `mu=(velocity of lightin vacuum)/(velocity of light in the given medium)] `
