The speed of the light in the medium is

Question:

The speed of the light in the medium is :-

 

 

  1. maximum on the axis of the beam

  2. minimum on the axis of the beam

  3. the same everywhere in the beam

  4. directly proportional to the intensity I


Correct Option: , 2

Solution:

Intensity is maximum at the axis of the cylindrical beam. Hence $\mu$ is maximum at the axis due to the relation $\mu=\mu_{0}+\mu_{2}$ I and $v \propto \frac{1}{\mu}$
