Question

laws of refraction what is the meaning of the refractive index of water is 1.33

Answer 1

It's means that when light enters water is gets slowed down by the rate of 1/1.33 m/s

Answer 2

Answer:

The value of the constant for a ray of light passing from aur into a particular medium is called the refractive index of that medium. By saying that the refractive index of water is 1.33 we mean that the ratio of speed of light in air (or vacuum) to the speed of light in water is equal to 1.33.
