Question

Refractive index of a medium is independent of ______.

Options

• temperature

• angle of incidence

• wavelength of light

Answer 1

Refractive index of a medium is independent of angle of incidence.

Explanation:

The refractive index of a medium is independent of the angle of incidence. The refractive index of a medium remains constant regardless of the angle of incidence. The refractive index depends on the medium’s characteristics, temperature, and wavelength. The dispersion of light is invariant regardless of the angle at which it strikes the surface.
