n = 1.52

<u>Index of the liquid = 1.52</u>

<u>The type of the liquid is Crown glass.</u>

<u>Explanation:</u>

In finding the index of refraction, we use this formula

n = c/v

where n is the index of refraction

c is velocity of light in vacuum which is constant and is equivalent to 3 \times 10^{8} \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s}

v is the velocity of light in a particular medium

Here we use 1.97 \times 10^{8} \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s}

Using the formula,

n = c/v

n = 3 \times 10^{8} / 1.97 \times 10^{8}

n = 1.52284264

n = 1.52

Thus, the index of the liquid is 1.52

The refractive index of the liquid is 1.52. The substance is a crown glass.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Given:

Velocity of light through the substance, v = 1.97 X 10⁸ m/s

Refractive index of the liquid, μ = ?

We know,

μ = \frac{c}{v}

where, c = velocity of light in air

            v = velocity of light in the substance

speed of light in air is 3 X 10⁸m/s

= \frac{3 X 10^8}{1.97 X 10^8} \\\\= 1.52\\

Therefore, refractive index of the liquid is 1.52. The substance is a crown glass.

Answer:

nπ + π/2 for any integer n

Explanation:

Since destructive interference occurs every odd multiple of half wavelength, that is π/2, 3π/2, 5π/2 where the interference is half wavelength and in general, (n + 1/2)π where n is an integer. So, nπ + π/2 for any integer n
