    Question

    What is the velocity of light in a diamond if the

    refractive index of diamond with respect to vacuum is 2.5?
    A 1.2 ├Ч 10^6 m/s Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B 1.2 ├Ч 10^7 m/s Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C 1.2 ├Ч 10^10 m/s Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D 1.2 ├Ч 10^8 m/s Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Refractive index of the diamond (┬╡ )= 2.5 We know The velocity of light in vacuum (c) = 3 ├Ч 108 m/s To find the velocity of light in diamond (v) Now, ┬╡d = c/v => 2.5 = (3 ├Ч 108)/v => v = ( 3 ├Ч 108 )/2.5 = 1.2 ├Ч 108 m/s
