Question : 45 of 60
Marks: +1, -0
In the diagram shown above n1,nn_1, n, and n3n_3 are refractive indices of the media 1,2 and 3 respectively. Which one of the following is true in this case?
Solution:  
When the light enters from optically rarer to optically denser medium, it bends towards the normal. While travelling from n1n_1 to n2n_2 light bends towards the normal, so, n2>n1n_2>n_1. Similarly, n3>n2n_3>n_2. Therefore, n3>n1n_3>n_1.
