उत्तर

(i) Speed of light in air = 3 × 10ms-1
(ii) Speed of light in glass = 2 × 10ms-1

Refractive index of glass with respect to air

= `"Speed of light in air"/"Speed of light in glass"`

= `(3xx10^8)/(2xx10^8)`

= `3/2`

= 1.5

In your laboratory you trace the path of light rays through a glass slab for different values of angle of incidence (∠i) and in each case measure the values of the corresponding angle of refraction (∠r) and angle of emergence (∠e). On the basis of your observations your correct conclusion is:

(a) ∠i is more than ∠r, but nearly equal to ∠e

(b) ∠i is less then ∠r, but nearly equal to ∠e

(c) ∠i is more than ∠e, but nearly equal to ∠r

(d) ∠i is less than ∠e, but nearly equal to ∠r
