Question 12 Marks
Refractive index of diamond with respect to glass is 1.6 and absolute refractive index of glass is 1.5. Find out the absolute refractive index of diamond.
Answer
Let, refractive index of diamond with respect to air = nDA = absolute refractive index of diamond,

refractive index of glass with respect to air = nGA = absolute refractive index of glass,

refractive index of diamond with respect to glass = nDG

Given,

NDG = 1.6 and nGA = 1.5

Now, $\text{n}_\text{DG}=\frac{\text{n}_{\text{DA}}}{\text{n}_{\text{GA}}}$

⇒ nDA = nDG × nGA

⇒ nDA = 1.6 × 1.5 = 2.4

Question 212 Marks
A pencil when dipped in water in a glass tumbler appears to be bent at the interface of air and water. Will the pencil appear to be bent to the same extent, if instead of water we use liquids like, kerosene or turpentine. Support your answer with reason.
Answer
We know that pencil appears to be bent at the interface of air and water because of refraction of light. The degree of refraction depends on refractive index of a given liquid. Refractive indices of kerosene, water and other liquids would be different. Hence, degree of bend would be different in case of different liquids.
