Question

Define absolute refractive index of a medium
Which has higher absolute refractive index, glass of water​

Answer 1

Answer:

The ratio of the speeds of light' in a given pair of media, gives us a measure of the extent of refraction (or bending) of a ray of light as it goes from one of these media to the other. We use this ratio to define a term called the relative refractive index of a given pair of media.

Glass has higher absolute refractive index than water.
