Answer:

No. The refractive index cannot be less than 1

Explanation:

The refractive index of any material cannot be one, because it is matter, which can be defined as anything that has mass and occupies space. It cannot be less than that of a vacuum, 1, which can be considered as nothing.

Answer:

No.

Explanation:

As absolute refractive index is ratio of speed of light in vacuum to that in the given mater, we can say it is always greater than one. ... Thus , absolute refractive index can never be less than one.
