Answer:

What is the meaning of the refractive index of diamond is 2.42? The refractive index of diamond is 2.42. This means that the speed of light in a diamond will reduce by a factor of 2.42 compared to its speed in air. In other words, the speed of light in a diamond is 1/2.42 times the speed of light in a vacuum.
