The refractive index of diamond is 2.42 and glass is 1.51.How much faster does light travel in glass than in diamond

Answer»

\huge\red{\underline{{\boxed{\textbf{ANSWER}}}}}

C= SPEED of LIGHT in air/vacuum.

(Speed of light in glass)/(Speed of light in diamond) = (c/1.51)/(c/2.42) = (2.42/1.51) = 1.602.

Light travels 1.602 times FASTER in glass than in diamond.
