The glass of optical fibre has a refractive index 1 . 55 and cladding with another glass of refractive index 1 . 51 . When the surrounding medium is air, the numerical aperture will be
Options
- A0 . 625
- B0 . 350
- C0 . 528
- D0 . 704
Correct answer
B. 0 . 350
Step-by-step solution
For air, μ 0 = 1 . Here, μ 1 = 1.55 , μ 2 = 1.51 N A = μ 1 2 - μ 2 2 μ 0 = 1.55 2 - 1.51 2 1 = 0.350
