Which among the following has its refractive index closest to that of crown glass?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: D
Explanation
The correct answer is option 4 i.e. Canada balsam.
- Refractive Index is equal to the ratio of the velocity of light in a vacuum to its velocity of the light in a specified medium we are comparing with.
- Refractive Index of Crown Glass - 1.52-1.62.
- Canada balsam has its refractive index closest to that of crown glass.
