The refractive index of water is 43 and for glass it is 32 with respect to airwhat is the refractive index of glass with respect to air?
"The refractive index of water is 4 / 3" means the refractive index of water with respect to air. "The refractive index of glass is 3 /2" means the refractive index of glass with respect to air. You change the question as ," what is the refractive index of glass with respect to water? The answer is it is the ratio of refractive index of of glass with respect to air to the refractive index of water with respect to air =( 3/2) divided by( 4/3) = 1.125

How is the refractive index of glass is to water is related with that of air is to water?
Each substance has an index of refraction. The index of refraction of water is about 1.3330 . The index of refraction of air at standard conditions is about 1.0003 . There is no such thing as the index of refraction of "water to air".
How thick should the glass be on a salt water aquarium?
The type of water in an aquarium does not affect how thick the glass should be. Glass thickness is determined by tank size; and heavily influenced by height.
What is the change of path of a light ray from glass into water?
Index of retraction
What happens when you look at an index card that is placed behind a glass of water?
you see the index card. maybe curving a little.
Will light be refracted more when it goes from air to glass or from air to water?
Gets refracted more in case of glass than water as glass has higher refractive index with respect to air
What is the outer covering of a leaf?
cuticle is the thick layer outside the leaf to prevent loss of water.
Does water or air have the highest refraction index?
Actually we define refractive index with respect to a standard medium. Air has been taken as that standard. Hence refractive index of air is 1 and that of water is 1.33. But refractive index of water with respect to glass is 1.33/1.5 = 0.887 So, the answer is "water".
What units would you use to measure a glass of water?
That depends what aspect of the glass of water you want to measure: its height, its volume, its mass, its index of refraction, etc.
How does a glass is made invisible?
submerge it in a liquid that has the same index of refraction eg. water.
