❤️Hi!!!❤️

Here’s your answer

When we say refractive index of diamond is 2.42, it means light is travelling from rarer to denser medium, and speed of light in air (vacuum) is 2.42 times the speed of light in diamond

Brain liest plz ❤️

Refractive index of any medium w.r.t. another indicates the extent to each light bends when it enters from first medium to the given medium. The given value of refractive index also states that speed of light in diamond is 1/2.42 times to the speed of light in vacuum.
