Same in all directions
Different in different directions
Cannot be measured
Always zero

उत्तर
Same in all directions.
Explanation:
Since quartz glass is an amorphous solid having short range order of constitutents. Hence, value of refractive index is same in all directions, can be measured and not be equal to zero always.
