Dear Student
All statements are correct.
All statements are correct.
Explanation:
Refractive index of medium A / Refractive index of medium B = 4/3
Refractive index of medium A / Refractive index of medium C = 3/2
Dividing ,
Refractive index of medium C / Refractive index of medium B
= 4/3 x 2/3
=8/9
So, Refractive index of C with respect to B is 8/9
Refractive index of medium B > Refractive index of medium C
So, medium B is denser than C
Hence when light ray travels from B to C it bends away from normal
speed of light in medium B / the speed of light in medium A = refractive index of A / refractive index of B = 4 / 3
