If the speed of light in a vaccum is c, the speed of light in a medium like glass with an index of refraction of 1.5 is : (a) 3c/2 (b) 3c (c) 2c/3 (d) 9c/4 (e) 4c/9 explain in detail why it is the answer you have chosen

The speed of light in the medium is

(c) correct option.

Explanation:

Given that,

Speed of light in vacuum = c

Refraction index = 1.5

We need to calculate the value of speed of light in the medium

The refractive index is equal to the speed of light in vacuum divide by the speed of light in medium.

Using formula of refractive index

Where, c = speed of light in vacuum

v = speed of light in medium

Put the value into the formula

Hence, The speed of light in the medium is

3.2x10^7

as we probably am aware that our atmosphere or air have various levels, each level has different gasses, and each gas has another porousness. at the point when the light originates from lower porousness to higher penetrability, it alters its course. with the goal that implies that when the light originates from the moon to the earth, it alters it's course a lot more occasions. it essentially implies that the state of the light piece of the moon is changed on the earth.
