The refractive index (n) is the ratio c/s where s is the speed of light in a medium and c is the speed of light in vacuum.
Since distance (d) is proportional to speed we can write (for
ice)
c/si = 1.309 = dv/2.01 where subscripts v
& i refer to vacuum and ice respectively.
dv = 2.63cm this is the distance the light would travel
in vacuum in the same time it would take to travel in the 2.01 cm
ice. (optical path).
similarly, for quartz, dv = 1.37
1.544=
2.11cm.
total distance in vacuum = 2.63+2.11= 4.74 cm.

A flat sheet of ice has a thickness of 1.0 cm. It is on top of a flat sheet of diamond that has a thickness of 3.0 cm. Light strikes the ice perpendicularly and travels through it and then through the diamond. In the time it takes the light to travel through the two sheets, how far would it have traveled in a vacuum?

I don't understand Question 5-9
Any information on how to answer these?
The speed of light depends on the medium through which it travels, and it is generally slower in the denser media. Fermat's principle in optics asserts that light travels from one point to another along a path for which the time of travel is minimum. In a uniform medium, where the speed of light remains constant, "shortest time" means "shortest path", and the ray of light follows a...

10) Classes are canceled due to snow, so you take advantage of the extra time to conduct some physics experiments. You fasten a large toy rocket to the back of a sled and take the modified sled to a large, flat, snowy field. You ignite the rocket and observe that the sled accelerates from rest in the forward direction at a rate of 12.5 m/s2 for a time period of 3.50 s. After this time period, the rocket engine abruptly...
