Refractive index = Speed of light in vaccum / Speed of light in water. It is denotes as n = c / v, v = c / n= 3 × 10^8 m/s / (1.33) = 2.25 × 10^8 m/s.

Therefore, refractive index of the water can be measure by the Speed of light in water is 2.25 × 10^8 m/s.

Answer:

2.25 × 10⁸ m / sec

Explanation:

Given :

Refractive index of water = 1.33

Speed of light in air = 3 × 10⁸ m / sec.

We know :

Refractive index = Speed of light in air / Speed of light in water

Speed of light in water = Speed of light in air / Refractive index.

Putting value we get :

Speed of light in water = 3 × 10⁸ m / sec / 1.33 .

Speed of light in water = 2.25 × 10⁸ m / sec

Hence speed of light in water is 2.25 × 10⁸ m / sec
