For a colour of light,the wavelength in air is $6000 \ \mathring A$ and in water,the wavelength is $4500 \ \mathring A$. Then the speed of light in water will be:

  • A
    $5.0 \times 10^{14} \ m/s$
  • B
    $2.25 \times 10^8 \ m/s$
  • C
    $4.0 \times 10^8 \ m/s$
  • D
    $0 \ m/s$

$A$ ray of light travels from air to water to glass and again from glass to air. Refractive index of water with respect to air is $x$, glass with respect to water is $y$, and air with respect to glass is $z$. Which one of the following is correct?

If $\hat{i}$ denotes a unit vector along the incident light ray,$\hat{r}$ a unit vector along the refracted ray into a medium of refractive index $\mu$,and $\hat{n}$ a unit vector normal to the boundary of the medium directed towards the incident medium,then the law of refraction is:

As shown in the figure,after passing through medium $1$,the speed of light $v_{2}$ in medium $2$ will be $..... \times 10^{8} \, ms^{-1}$. (Given $c = 3 \times 10^{8} \, ms^{-1}$)
