प्रश्न
The refractive indices of glass and water w.r.t. air are 3/2 and 4/3 respectively. Determine the refractive index of glass w.r.t. water.
उत्तर
Given:
`""_amu_g=3/2, ""_amu_w=4/3`
Find: `""_wmu_g`
Formula: `""_wmu_g=(""_amu_g)/(""_amu_w)`
solution: `""a_mu_g=C_a/C_g and ""_amu_w=C_a/C_w`
`""_wmu_g=C_w/C_g`
From Formula
`""_amu_g=(3/2)/(4/3)`
`""_wmu_g=1.12`
The refractive index of glass w.r.t. water is 1.12.
