<marquee>Hi
<b><u><i>
the refractive index or index of refraction of a material is a dimensionless number that describes how light propagates through that medium. It is defined as where c is the speed of light in vacuum and v is the phase velocity of light in the medium. 

Hope it helps you ! ✌✌

aayushpathak94: ohh..good night isn't it
aayushpathak94: i think we will spend whole night together saying bye to each other....
aayushpathak94: what is going on in here
aayushpathak94: what is all this nonsense

hello dear friend here is your best friend to help you....
refractive index is nothing but just the ratio of sin of angle of incidence to the sin of angle of refraction....
(SIN ANGLE I) /(SIN ANGLE R) =C

C is constant termed as refractive index of the medium through which light travels....

I hope made it clear to you.... bye
and if you have any confusion and doubt please ask me through comments...
please mark it as brainliest

antara40: thanks a lot brother
aayushpathak94: my pleasure to help you
