Question

In an experiment, the refractive index of water was found to be 1.35, 1.29, 1.32 and 1.36. What is the average refractive index of water?

A.

1.36

B.

1.33

C.

1.32

D.

1.30

Correct option is B

Given:

Refractive indices from the experiment:
1.35, 1.29, 1.32, 1.36

Formula Used:

Average = Sum of observationsNumber of observations\frac{\text{Sum of observations}}{\text{Number of observations}}​​

Solution:

Sum = 1.35 + 1.29 + 1.32 + 1.36 = 5.32

Number of observations = 4

Average = 5.324\frac{5.32}{4}​ = 1.33
