(i) What is the relation between the refractive index of water with respect to air `("_aμ_\text(w))` and the refractive index of air with respect to water `("_\text(w)μ_ a)` .
(ii) If the refractive index of water with respect to air `("_aμ_\text(w))` is`5/3`. Calculate the refractive index of air with respect to water `("_\text(w)μ_ a)` .

उत्तर
(i) `"_a μ_\text(w) =(mu_\text(w))/(mu_a)`
` "_\text(w) μ_a = (mu_a)/(mu_\text(w) `
`∴ "_a μ_\text(w) `= `1/ ("_\text(w) mu_a)`
(ii) ` "_a μ_\text(w) = 5/ 3`
` "_\text(w) mu _a = 3/5 `

A ray of light passes from air to water. In fig. 39, which of the ray A, B, C and D is the correct refracted ray?
Draw a diagram to show the splitting of white light into its constituent colours.
After a robbery, if a window has been broken, there will be tiny particles of glass. Some of these will be found at the scene of the crime and some may be caught in the thief’s clothing. If the police can prove that these particles are identical, they have a strong case.
A method of doing this is to suspend the particles of glass in a special liquid. Light of a single colour is thrown through the liquid and the particles viewed through a microscope. The temperature of the liquid is then slowly altered. This alters the speed of light through the liquid (i.e., it alters the refractive index). At one particular temperature, the particles of glass disappear. It this happens at the same temperature for both sets of glass particles, they probably came from the same broken pane of glass.
Complete and copy the diagram to show how light bends when it travels from the liquid to the glass and back to the liquid, If the light slows down in the glass.
A ray of monochromatic light is incident from the air on a glass slab:

(ii) Name the two rays that are parallel to each other.
(iii) Mark the lateral displacement in your diagram.
