The ray if light are entering from glass into glycerine . If the absolute refractive indices of glass and glycerine are 1.5 and 1.47 respectively, find the refraction index of glycerine related of glass Page 46 Chapter - 2.Reflection and Refraction

Answer»

e REFRACTIVE index of medium compared to other medium, We call it as relative refractive index. In other words, Refractive index of medium 2 relative to medium 1 can be given as, ratio of refractive index of medium 2 to medium 1. Given, The RAY if light are entering from glass into GLYCERINE . If the absolute refractive INDICES of glass and glycerine are 1.5 and 1.47 respectively Now, Refractive index of glycerine relative to glass Therefore, Refractive index of glycerine RELATED to glass is 0.98.
