WEBApr 12, 2024 · Refractive index is also equal to the velocity of light c of a given wavelength in empty space divided by its velocity v in a substance, or n = c/v. Some typical refractive indices for yellow light (wavelength equal to 589 nanometres [10 −9 metre]) are the following: air , 1.0003; water , 1.333; crown glass , 1.517; dense flint glass , 1.655 ...
