', '
' and '
' are
,
respectively. The speed of light is minimum in medium
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
D
: According to Snell's law

[From air to a medium]

Let
be speed of light in the medium.

For a given angle of incidence,


Hence, the speed of light in medium
is minimum.
