Contact or ask the American Quarter Horse Association (AQHA) about their speed index chart. It is issued annually so the one you find may not be the most recent one.
quarter horses have been clocked at 55mph (88.5k) in the quarter mile.
Speed Index is a system that is used by the American Quarter Horse Association to rate the performance of racehorses. Speed Index is calculated by averaging the fastest three winning times over the past three years.
The speed of light in any medium isspeed of light in vacuum/refractive index of that medium.
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.
Speed of light in water = speed of light in vacuum/refractive index of water
there are lots of western races for speed with the quarter horse like the barrel race, pole bending etc.

34mph is the average for most horses. 45 is more like the speed of racehorses and Quarter horses can reach 55 miles an hour for short sprints

Quarter Horses. They have been soundly bred, are built for quick spurts of speed, and can rate and collect themselves to turn the barrel.
The following assumes you already know the speed of light in a vacuum. You can do measurements related to refraction, applying Snell's law to the angles you measure. This gives you the index of refraction.Once you know the index of refraction, you divide the speed of light in the vacuum by the index of refraction, to obtain the speed of light in water.
The comfort index is a creation of the Weather Channel. It provides an approximation of how comfortable you will be outdoors. Factors such as temperature, humidity, cloud cover, wind speed, and the chance of precipitation are used to calculate the comfort index.
