The meaning of ice refractive index 1.31 is described below:
- In the formula to compute refractive index, we have three variables namely n,c, and v.
- Here, n is the refractive index, c is the speed of light and v is the phase velocity of light respectively.
- As a result, in the case of the ice refractive index equal to 1.31, it means the ratio of the speed of light in vacuum or air with respect to ice is 1.31.
