उत्तर
Given: apparent depth \[=2.7\ \text{m}\]
refractive index \[=\frac{4}{3}\]
\[\mu=\frac{\text{real depth}}{\text{apparent depth}}\]
\[\text{Real depth}=\frac{4}{3}\times2.7\]
= 3.6 m

A ray of light passes from water to air. How does the speed of light change?
A monochromatic ray of light passes from air to glass. The wavelength of light in air is λ, the speed of light in air is c and in glass is V. If the absolute refractive index of glass is 1.5, write down
- the relationship between c and V,
- the wavelength of light in glass.
