medium

When light propagates through a material medium of relative permittivity $\varepsilon_{ r }$ and relative permeability $\mu_{r^{\prime}}$ the velocity of light, $v$ is given by: (c - velocity of light in vacuum)

A$v=\sqrt{\frac{\mu_{ r }}{\varepsilon_{ r }}}$
B $v=\sqrt{\frac{\varepsilon_{ r }}{\mu_{ r }}}$
C$v=\frac{ c }{\sqrt{\varepsilon_{ r } \mu_{ r }}}$
D$v= c$

Solution

$n=\sqrt{\epsilon_{r} u_{r}}$
$n=\frac{c}{v} \Rightarrow v=\frac{c}{n}$
$v=\left(\frac{c}{\sqrt{\epsilon_{r} \mu_{r}}}\right)$
