The Refractive index and wavelength are directly proportional to each other.(a) True(b) FalseI got this question in semester exam.My question is taken from Ray Optics in division Ray Optics and Optical Instruments of Physics – Class 12

Answer» CORRECT ANSWER is (b) False

To elaborate: No, this statement is false. The Refractive index of material and wavelength of color are inversely PROPORTIONAL to each other. For example, the wavelength of the color RED is the longest, so the refractive index of the same will be the smallest. Similarly, violet has the greatest refractive index and the shortest wavelength.
