Electromagnetic Waves question

2022 · Q153

NEETPhysicsElectromagnetic WavesMCQ+4 / −1

When light propagates through a material medium of relative permittivity ε\varepsilonεr and relative permeability μ\muμr, the velocity of light, v is given by (c-velocity of light in vacuum)

  1. A
    v = c
  2. B
    v=μrεrv = \sqrt {{{{\mu _r}} \over {{\varepsilon _r}}}}v=εr​μr​​​
  3. C
    v=εrμrv = \sqrt {{{{\varepsilon _r}} \over {{\mu _r}}}}v=μr​εr​​​
  4. D
    v=cεrμrv = {c \over {\sqrt {{\varepsilon _r}{\mu _r}} }}v=εr​μr​​c​
View written solutionFree

Correct answer: D

$$v = {1 \over {\sqrt {{\varepsilon _m}{\mu _m}} }}$$

$$v = {1 \over {\sqrt {{\varepsilon _0}{\varepsilon _r}{\mu _0}{\mu _r}} }}$$

Since $$c = {1 \over {\sqrt {{\varepsilon _0}{\mu _0}} }}$$

$$ \Rightarrow v = {c \over {\sqrt {{\varepsilon _r}{\mu _r}} }}$$
