Solution

The birefringence of a fiber can be calculated using the formula:

Birefringence = Wavelength / Beat length

Given in the problem, the wavelength (λ) is 1200nm or 1200 * 10^-9 m and the beat length is 4cm or 0.04m.

So, Birefringence = (1200 * 10^-9 m) / 0.04 m = 3 * 10^-5

So, the answer is a. 3*(10^-5).
