Maybe this isn't the answer you're looking for, but the index of refraction of saline solutions of various concentrations is well known. You would just use a table...
refraction occurs if the medium is water. or it bounces of a solid,my guess :D
No, it would not.
The high index of refraction of diamond produces a rainbow effect of multi-colored glitter. This is difficult to reproduce in the less expensive materials used for costume jewelry.
You can investigate fraction in glass using a rectangular glass block. By tracing the rays of light on a piece of paper, you can measure the angles of incidence (i) and refraction (r). If you repeat this process for a range of different angles of incidence, you would find that the sine of the angle of incidence and the sine of the angle of refraction are constant. This ratio is called the refractive index of the material, and is given the letter n.The angles of incidence and refraction are related by the following equation:sin in=__________sin r

Q: How do you think increasing a medium's index of refraction might affect the angle of refraction?
Index Of Refraction
A medium with a higher index of refraction, like diamond, is more dense than the medium with a lower index of refraction, like air. If the ray of light is moving from the less dense medium (lower index of refraction), to a more dense (higher index of refraction) the ray of light bends TOWARDS the normal.
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".
Use the definition of "index of refraction". In this case, you simply need to divide the speed of light in a vacuum by the index of refraction.

well kids, the answer is INDEX OF REFRACTION. (: science question on my homework
c divided by the index of refraction of the medium = the speed of light in the medium.
Water's index of refraction is 1.333
Use the definition of "index of refraction". In this case, you simply need to divide the speed of light in a vacuum by the index of refraction.
Approximately 1
The ray of light bends towards the normal.
