The time taken by light to travel normally through a glass plate of thickness 1 mm would be : (Take refractive index of glass = 1.5)

  1. A \( 0.1 \times 10^{-13} \text{ s} \)
  2. B \( 12 \times 10^{-5} \text{ s} \)
  3. C \( 5 \times 10^{-12} \text{ s} \)
  4. D \( 1.5 \times 10^{-5} \text{ s} \)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) \( 5 \times 10^{-12} \text{ s} \)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\( v = \frac{c}{n} = \frac{3 \times 10^8 \text{ m/s}}{1.5} = 2 \times 10^8 \text{ m/s} \) \( t = \frac{d}{v} = \frac{1 \times 10^{-3} \text{ m}}{2 \times 10^8 \text{ m/s}} = 5 \times 10^{-12} \text{ s} \)
