|
Answer» Refractive index of a material is a dimensionless number that describes how fast light propagates through the material. It is the ratio of velocity of light in vacuum to its velocity is a specified medium. R.I. of diamond is 2.42 which means speed of light is diamond is 2.42 times slower than that is vacuum. |
