Hola there,
Speed of light in air = 3 × 10^8
Speed of light in water = 2.26 × 10^8
Refractive index of water = Speed of light in air/speed of light in water
= (3 × 10^8)/(2.26 × 10^8)
= 1.32743363 ....Ans
Hope this helps...:)

Answer:
1.32743363
Explanation:
Speed of light in air = 3 × 10^8
Speed of light in water = 2.26 × 10^8
Refractive index of water = Speed of light in air/speed of light in water
= (3 × 10^8)/(2.26 × 10^8)
= 1.32743363
R.I=sine of angle of incidence/sine of angle of refraction
R.I=sin45/sin30
R.I=
SIN45
1/√2
sin 30
1/2
R.I=1.414
√2 = 1.414
