Consider slabs of three media $A, B$ and $C$ arranged as shown in the figure. The refractive index $(R.I.)$ of $A$ is $1.5$ and that of $C$ is $1.4$. If the number of waves in $A$ is equal to the number of waves in the combination of $B$ and $C$,then the refractive index of $B$ is:

$A$ beam of light propagating in medium $A$ with index of refraction $n(A)$ passes across an interface into medium $B$ with index of refraction $n(B)$. The angle of incidence is greater than the angle of refraction; $v(A)$ and $v(B)$ denote the speed of light in $A$ and $B$. Then which of the following is true?

In refraction,light waves are bent on passing from one medium to the second medium,because,in the second medium

The refractive index of glass is $1.6$ and the speed of light in glass will be . . . . . . . Speed of light in vacuum is $3 \times 10^{8} \,m \,s^{-1}$.

An observer can see the top of a thin rod of height $h$ through a pinhole. The height of the container is $3h$ and its radius is $2h$. When the container is filled with a liquid up to a height of $2h$,the observer can see the bottom end of the rod. Find the refractive index of the liquid.

When light is refracted into a denser medium,
