Answers

Answered by devarchanc

Explanation:

2.41 represents the refractive index of diamond with respect to the air when light enters from air to diamond.

This means that the speed of light in diamond will reduce by a factor of 2.41 as compared to its speed in air. To tell more clearly, the speed of light in diamond is 1/2.41 times the speed of light in vacuum.
