Optics Question 776

Question: The wavelength of light in air and some other medium are respectively $ {\lambda _{a}} $ and $ {\lambda _{m}}. $ The refractive index of medium is

[RPMT 2003]

Options:

A) $ {\lambda _{a}}/{\lambda _{m}} $

B) $ {\lambda _{m}}/{\lambda _{a}} $

C) $ {\lambda _{a}}\times {\lambda _{m}} $

D) None of these

Show Answer

Answer:

Correct Answer: A

Solution:

$ {\mu _{m}}=\frac{c}{v}=\frac{n{\lambda _{a}}}{n{\lambda _{m}}} $

$ =\frac{{\lambda _{a}}}{{\lambda _{m}}} $
