NEET Physics Light Propagation MCQ Question

Type: MCQ-conceptual-Medium-Class 12

When light propagates through a material When light propagate permittivity εᵣ and relative medium of relative the velocity of light, v is given permeability μᵣ, the light in vacuum) by: (c = velocity of light in vacuum)

A

v = √(μᵣ/εᵣ)

B

v = √(εᵣ/μᵣ)

C

v = c/√(εᵣμᵣ)

D

v = c

Correct Answer

Option C

Detailed Explanation

The velocity of light in a medium is given by v = c/√(εᵣμᵣ), where εᵣ is the permittivity and μᵣ is the permeability of the medium.
