उत्तर
The refractive index of a medium is defined as the ratio of the speed of light in a vacuum to the speed of light in that medium.
So, n = `"Speed of light in a vacuum"/"Speed of light in that medium" = c/v`
This equation shows how light slows down in denser media, resulting in a refractive index greater than 1.
