Question:

If a thin film of thickness t and refractive index $μ$ is placed in the path of light coming from a source S, then increase in length of optical path is

Options:

$μ\, t$

$μ / t$

$(μ-1) t$

None of these

Correct Answer:

$(μ-1) t$

Explanation:

Increase in optical path = $μt-t=(μ-1)t$
