Answer (Detailed Solution Below)
Detailed Solution
Download Solution PDFRefractive index: The ratio of the speed of light in a vacuum to speed of light in a medium is called the refractive index of that medium. It is also called an absolute refractive index.
\({\rm{Refractive\;index\;}}\left( \mu \right) = {\rm{\;\;}}\frac{{Speed\;of\;light\;in\;vaccum\left( C \right)}}{{Speed\;of\;light\;in\;a\;medium\left( v \right)}}\)
Relative refractive index: When a light ray is going from one medium (other than vacuum) to another medium then the value of the refractive index is said to be a relative refractive index.
\({\rm{Refractive\;index\;of\;medium\;}}1{\rm{\;with\;respect\;to\;medium\;}}2{(n_{21})} = {\rm{\;}}\frac{{\;refractive\;index\;of\;medium\;1 {(n_1)}}}{{\;Refractive\;index\;of\;medium\;2{(n_2)}}}\)
