उत्तर १
Let dfg and dm m be the distances by the ray of light in the flint glass and the medium respectively. Also, let nfg and nm be the refractive indices of the flint glass and the medium respectively.
Data: dfg = 3 cm, nfg = 1.6, nm = 1.25,
Optical path = `"n"_"m" xx "d"_"m" = "n"_"fg" xx "d"_"fg"`
∴ `"d"_"m" = ("n"_"fg" xx "d"_"fg")/"n"_"m" = (1.6 xx 3)/1.25 = 3.84` cm
Thus, x cm = 3.84 cm
∴ x = 3.84
उत्तर २
Given:
d1 = 3 cm, n1 = 1.6, n2 = 1.25
To find: Optical path in medium 2 (d2)
Formula: n1d1 = n2d2
Calculation:
From formula,
1.6 × 3 = 1.25 × d2
∴ d2 = `(1.6 xx 3)/1.25` = 3.84 cm
The value of x is 3.84 cm.
