Explanation:
Refractive index n = c/v, where c = 3×10⁸ m/s (speed in vacuum). Thus v = c/n = (3×10⁸)/(4/3) = 3×10⁸ × 3/4 = 9/4 × 10⁸ = 2.25×10⁸ m/s. This direct formula application is fundamental in optics. Memory aid: 'Higher n ⇒ slower light in medium'. Competitive exams frequently test this calculation with common refractive indices (water 4/3, glass ~1.5). Always use c = 3×10⁸ m/s unless specified otherwise, and ensure unit consistency (m/s here).
Explanation:
Hydrogen bomb (thermonuclear weapon) uses uncontrolled nuclear fusion of hydrogen isotopes, triggered by a fission bomb. Releases enormous energy. Sun also uses fusion. Fission used in atomic bomb.
