Question:
what is refractive index in detail
Answer:
Light travels with different speeds in different different mediums.
The speed of light in vaccum is 3×108 m/sec
The refractive index of a medium is the ratio of speed of light in vaccum to its speed in that medium.
Refractive index =Speed of light in vaccum / Speed of light in medium
