Vacuum is a place where no particles exist . It represents an empty area . Thus , light travels slower in other transparent mediums which contain particles to resist the motion of light .
The absolute refractive index of a medium is the ratio of speed of light in vacuum to the speed of light in the medium . In this scenario , the numerator will always be greater than the denominator . Thus , absolute refractive index can never be less than one .
