what is the speed of light moving through a medium of index refraction 2.45?

c/2.45 = 0.393 c

c is the vacuum speed of light , which I am sure you already know.

To determine the speed of light moving through a medium with a refractive index of 2.45, you can use the formula:

v = c/n

Where:
v is the speed of light in the medium,
c is the speed of light in a vacuum (which is approximately 3 x 10^8 meters per second), and
n is the refractive index of the medium.

Now let's plug in the values into the formula.

v = (3 x 10^8 m/s) / 2.45

After performing the calculation, we find that the speed of light in this medium is approximately 1.23 x 10^8 meters per second.
