Air has refractive index of 1.0003. The thickness of air column, which will have one more wavelength of yellow light (6000Å) than in the same thickness of vacuum, is –

A

2 mm

B

2 cm

C

2 m

D

0.2 mm

Answer

2 mm

Explanation

Solution

d = λμ−1=6000×10−100.0003\frac { \lambda } { \mu - 1 } = \frac { 6000 \times 10 ^ { - 10 } } { 0.0003 }m = 2mm
