Out of the two Media – Medium 1 and Medium 2, in which is the speed of light more?
Out of the two Media – Medium 1 and Medium 2, in which is the speed of light more?
Show Hint
Solution and Explanation
The speed of light is more in Medium 1 as the refracted ray bends away from the normal when it enters Medium 2, which suggests that the speed of light in Medium 1 is higher.
