Ray Optics and Optical Instruments

  1. Light travels through a glass plate of thickness t and refractive index µ. If c is the speed of light in vacuum, the time taken by light to travel this thickness of glass is
    1. µtc
    2. tc
      μ
    3. t
      μc
    4. μt
      c
Correct Option: D

​Total thickness = t;  Refrative index = µ ​

Speed of light in Glass plate =
c
μ

∵ v =
Speed of light in vacuum
R.I. of medium

Time taken =
t
=
μt
c
c
μ

[where, t = thickness of glass plate]
