1. Refractive index of water is

$\frac{4}{3}$ and the refractive index of glass is

$\frac{3}{2}$ . Find the refractive index of glass with respect to the refractive index of water.

From the data given,

Refractive index of water (

$\mu_w$ )

$=$

$\frac{4}{3}$

Refractive index of glass (

$\mu_g$ )

$=$

$\frac{3}{2}$

The formula to calculate the refractive index of glass with respect to the refractive index of water is,

Substitute the known values,

Refractive index of a medium (

$\mu$ )

$=$
