what is relative refractive index?
teena18:
the material through which light travels is called medium. light is refracted (or bent) in going from One medium to another because speed changes (it slows down or speed up) due to this, the refractive index can also written as ratio of speeds of Light in the two media

A number indicating the speed of light in a given medium as either the ratio of the speed of light in a vacuum to that in the given medium (absolute index of refraction) or the ratio of the speed of light in a specified medium to that in the given medium (relative index of refraction) Symbol: n.

relative refractive index is the refractive index of a medium with repect to any medium other than air.
when the refractive index of a medium is taken with respect to air,it is called absolute refractive index.
