  • question_answer
    A glass has refractive index 3/2 and water has refractive index 4/3. If the speed of light in glass is \[\text{2}\times \text{1}{{0}^{\text{8}}}\text{ m}/\text{s},\] the speed of light in water in m/s is

    A) \[\text{1}.\text{5}\times \text{l}{{0}^{\text{6}}}\]                          

    B)  \[\text{1}.\text{78}\times \text{l}{{0}^{\text{8}}}\]

    C) \[\text{2}.\text{25}\times \text{l}{{0}^{\text{8}}}\]                        

    D)  \[\text{2}.\text{67}\times \text{l}{{0}^{\text{8}}}\]

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

                     Since, [iv = constant \[\Rightarrow \]               \[{{\mu }_{g}}{{v}_{g}}={{\mu }_{w}}{{v}_{w}}\] \[\Rightarrow \]               \[\frac{3}{2}(2\times {{10}^{8}})=\frac{4}{3}{{v}_{w}}\] \[\Rightarrow \]               \[{{v}_{w}}=2.25\times {{10}^{8}}m/s\]
