Solution

The time taken by the axial ray to travel along the fiber can be calculated using the formula:

t = L / (c/n)

where:

  • t is the time taken
  • L is the length of the fiber
  • c is the speed of light in vacuum
  • n is the refractive index of the fiber

Given:

  • L = 12m
  • n = 1.5
  • c = 3 x 10^8 m/s

Substituting these values into the formula, we get:

t = 12m / (3 x 10^8 m/s / 1.5) = 0.06 μsec

So, the correct answer is a. 0.06 μsec.
