Which statement correctly compares the speed of light a. the speed of light through space is much greater than 3×10^8 m/s b. this speed of light in glass this much greater than 3 x 10^8 m/s c. the speed of light in glass is faster than the speed of light in space d. the speed of light in glass is slower than the speed of light in space

The speed of light in glass is slower than the speed of light through space.

The correct answer is Option D.

Explanation:

Refractive index is defined as the ratio of speed of light in vacuum to the speed of light in medium. It is represented as . Speed of light in vacuum is always equal to

Mathematically,

If the refractive index is more, the speed of light in that medium will be slow and vice-versa.

As, the refractive index of glass is more than the refractive index of space. Hence, the speed of light will be slower in glass.

Therefore, the correct answer is Option D.

from

explanation:

wind is defined by the direction it blows from.   for example, a wind blowing from north to south is called a northerly wind.

c)as speed changes, wavelength and frequency change.

everything changes!
