    Considering normal incidence of ray, the equivalent    refractive    index    of combination of two slabs shown in figure is:

    A)  1.8             

    B)  1.43

    C)  2              

    D)  none of these

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

     The equivalent refractive index of combination of slabs for normal incidence is \[\mu =\frac{\Sigma {{t}_{i}}}{\Sigma \frac{{{t}_{i}}}{{{\mu }_{i}}}}\] In this case, \[\mu =\frac{{{t}_{1}}+{{t}_{2}}}{\frac{{{t}_{1}}}{{{\mu }_{1}}}+\frac{{{t}_{2}}}{{{\mu }_{2}}}}\] \[=\frac{10+15}{\frac{10}{4/3}+\frac{15}{3/2}}\] \[=\frac{25}{7.5+10}=\frac{2.5}{17.5}\] \[=1.43\]
