What is refractive index with examples
  • 1 answers

Amar Kumar 8 years, 1 month ago

Refractive index is defined as measure of the ratio of the speed of light in the vacuum (c) of space to the speed of light in the object (v) .

 n = c/ v

 For example  the refractive index of water is 1.333, meaning that light travels 1.333 times slower in water than in the vacuum.
