Q. Which of the three media A, B, C has maximum optical density
Q. Through which of the three media will speed of light maximum?
Q. Will light travel from A to B bend towards pa away from the normal?
Dear Student
(a) The medium C have the maximum optical density because there is more bending of light towards the normal, mean it stops light more than other medium.
(b). Speed of light in the medium A is maximum because there is no bending of light when entering from the air. Hence medium a is the similar to the air medium where speed of light is maximum.
(c). When light enter from the medium A to B light will bend towards the normal because medium B is the denser than medium A.
(d). na , nb and nc are the refractive indices of the mediums then in in the descending order
nc>nb > na
