Answer:

The speed of light in vacuum is C _____

Light travels at approximately 300,000 kilometres per second in a vacuum, which has a refractive index of 1.0, but it slows down to 225,000 kilometres per second in water (refractive index of 1.3; see Figure 2) and 200,000 kilometres per second in glass.

Velocity of light in vacuum is 3 × 10 m/s.

Detailed Discussion:

  • This means that in vacuum, light travels 3 × 10⁸ metres in 1 second.

  • Now, when light travels at this speed for 1 year, the distance covered by light is called a LIGHT YEAR.

  • Value of 1 light year is approximately 9.46 trillion kilometres or 5.87 trillion miles.

  • Now, when light passes through denser media like glass or water, it's velocity decreases.
