Question

The speed of light in a vacuum is 3.00 ´ 10⁸ m/s. If the refractive index of a diamond is 2.42, what speed does light travel as it passes through a diamond?

Definition Definition Rate at which light travels, measured in a vacuum. The speed of light is a universal physical constant used in many areas of physics, most commonly denoted by the letter c . The value of the speed of light c = 299,792,458 m/s, but for most of the calculations, the value of the speed of light is approximated as c = 3 x 10 8 m/s.
