The speed of light will be minimum while passing through which of the following mediums? Notes: Light travels at approximately 300,000 kilometers per second in a vacuum, which has a refractive index of 1.0, but it slows down to 225,000 kilometers per second in water and 200,000 kilometers per second in glass.
