    The time required for the light to pass through a glass slab (refractive index = 1.5) of thickness 4 mm is (\[c=3\times 108\text{ }m{{s}^{-1}}\], speed of light in free space)

    A)  \[{{10}^{-11}}s\]

    B)  \[2\times {{10}^{-11}}s\]

    C)  \[2\times {{10}^{11}}s\]

    D)  \[2\times {{10}^{-5}}s\]

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    We know,      \[{{n}_{a}}{{c}_{a}}={{n}_{g}}{{c}_{g}}\] \[\frac{{{n}_{g}}}{{{n}_{a}}}=\frac{{{c}_{a}}}{{{c}_{g}}}\] \[\frac{3}{2}=\frac{3\times {{10}^{8}}}{{{c}_{g}}}\] \[{{c}_{g}}=2\times {{10}^{8}}\] We have.   \[\text{Time=}\frac{\text{Distance}}{\text{Speed}}\] \[\text{t}\,\text{=}\frac{4\times {{10}^{-3}}}{2\times {{10}^{8}}}\] or \[t=2\times {{10}^{-11}}s\]
