    If the angle of incidence is \[i\] and that of refraction is r. Then the speed of light in the medium to which the light is refracted from air is

    A)  \[v=C\frac{\sin i}{\cos r}\]

    B)  \[v=C\frac{\cos r}{\cos i}\]

    C)  \[v=C\frac{\sin r}{\sin i}\]

    D)  \[v=C\frac{\sin i}{\sin r}\]

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    We have, \[\mu =\frac{\sin i}{\sin r}\] and also \[\mu =\frac{c}{v}\] \[\therefore \] \[\frac{c}{v}=\frac{\sin i}{\sin r}\] \[\Rightarrow \] \[v=c\,\,\left( \frac{\sin r}{\sin i} \right)\]
