Question 8.
Solve the following examples.
If the absolute refractive indices of glass and water are 3/2 and 4/3 respectively, what is the refractive index of glass with respect to water?
Answer:
Refractive Index of glass = 3/2
Refractive index of water = 4/3
So refractive index of glass with respect to water =
=
= 9/8
So refractive index of glass with respect to water = 9/8
