    Light travels through a glass plate of thickness t and having refractive index \[\mu \]. If c be the velocity of light in vacuum, the time taken by the light to travel this thickness of glass is:

    A)  \[\frac{t}{\mu c}\]                

    B)  \[t\,\mu c\]

    C)  \[\frac{\mu t}{c}\]             

    D)  \[\frac{tc}{\mu }\]

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    As, the refractive index for any medium, \[\mu =\frac{velocity\text{ }of\text{ }light\text{ }in\text{ }vacuum}{velocity\text{ }of\text{ }light\text{ }in\text{ }glass\text{ }plate}\] \[=\frac{C}{C},\]  or \[c'=\frac{c}{\mu }\] \[\therefore \] Time taken \[\text{=}\frac{\text{distance}}{\text{velocity}}=\frac{t}{\left( \frac{c}{\mu } \right)}=\frac{\mu t}{c}\]
