1.

Light travels from a rarer medium to a denser medium. The angle of incidence and refraction are respectively 45^@ and 30^@. Calculate the refractive index of the second medium with respect to the first medium.

Answer»

Solution :Angle of INCIDENCE `I = 45^@` : Angle of REFRACTION `r= 30^@`
`""_(1) mu_(2)= (sin i)/(sin r) = (sin 45^@)/(sin 30^@) = (1 SQRT2)/(1 //2) = sqrt2 = 1.414`
