Answer:
The speed of light in alcohol will be 2.2 X 10^ 8 ms-1.
Refractive index is a measure of the bending of a ray of light when passing from one medium into another medium. It is also known as the index of refraction.
n = c/v
Here n = index of refraction
C = velocity of light in vacuum
V = velocity of light in medium
1.36 = 3 x 10^ 8/ V
V = 3 x 10^ 8/1.36
V = 2.2 X 10^ 8 ms-1
hope this helps you plz mark as brainliest plz....
