Calculate the index of refraction for a medium in which the speed of light is $2.012 \times 10^{8} \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s},$ and identify the most likely substance based on Table $25.1 .$
$n=1.491 .$ The material is most probably polystyrene.

the refractive index off a material is given by an is equal to speed off light and reckon derided by speed of light in the medium speeding flight. In working we have is three times 10 to the power eight. Each of her second, divided by the given speed of light in the medium is 2.12 times tendon Power eight. Deriding these two numbers, he's this 1.491 perfecting Dex looking in table. This is probably the Effect index also only starting all these styrene.
