    A light ray of \[5895\overset{\text{o}}{\mathop{\text{A}}}\,\] wavelength travelling in vacuum enters a medium of refractive index 1.5. The speed of light in the medium is:

    A)  \[3\times {{10}^{8}}m/s\]    

    B)         \[2\times {{10}^{8}}m/s\]

    C)  \[1.5\times {{10}^{8}}\text{ }m/s\] 

    D)         \[6\times {{10}^{8}}m/s\]

    E)  \[5\times {{10}^{7}}m/s\]

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    Speed of light is given by \[v=\frac{c}{n}=\frac{3\times {{10}^{8}}}{1.5}=2\times {{10}^{8}}m/s\]
