That is called the dielectric constant, also the square root of the relative permittivity.
Speed of light in a material = c / (refractive index of the material) . ' c ' = speed of light in vacuum = 299,792,458 meters per second.
The velocity of light in vacuum is a universal constant. A light year is the distance travelled at that velocity in one year. To define a sound year it would be necessary to also specify the precise characteristics of material it is being propagated through. A vacuum won't do, since sound doesn't travel through a vacuum.
That depends on the density of the material. For example, 280,000 gallons of a perfect vacuum have a mass of zero tonnes.That depends on the density of the material.

The space between cells can be called the extracellular space, the extracellular material, or the extracellular matrix. This space is not a vacuum; it is filled with material. If the material is gel-like it is called the ground substance, which is filled with many dissolved solute particles, and the tissue will be loose. If the material in the extracellular space has some fibers of protein in it, the entire tissue will have a stronger consistency.
Radiation is energy that comes from a source and travels through some material or through space.Since there is Vacuum( empty space) between earth and the sun, Light travels using radiation....Hope it helped! :)
Waves disturb or perturb the medium and this propagates the wave.
As the medium through which light propagates in space is closes to a vacuum, light propagates very well in space. However, it travels at the same speed as it would on earth, as light travels at 299,792,458m/s in a vacuum, regardless of where that vacuum is located. the light travels in same speed whether it travels in space or earth.
Sound is carried by vibrations moving through a material, whether the material is solid, liquid or gaseous. A vacuum is the absence of material and therefore there is no material to vibrate, hence no sound can be passed through a vacuum.
Electromagnetic wave, namely, light as it travels through denser medium its speed decreases from its speed when it travels through air or vacuum.
Sound waves can travel through any material, but not through a VACUUM. You may be thinking of the term "MEDIUM", which is often used GENERICALLY to signify what a 'Wave" is traveling through. -------------------------------------------------- The material is called "matter".
Sound cannot travel through vacuum, but unless there is sufficient insulation, sound might travel through the material the tube is made of.
Light is not refracted when while it passes through a vacuum, or through any uniform material.
It needs a material medium for propagation
the most dense material that is known Sound cannot pass through a vacuum.
Vacuum as sound needs badly a material medium to get it propagated.
Sound (and vibration) are a wave system of sequential compressions and rarefactions of a material. These waves are mechanical and do need a substance through which to travel. They cannot travel through a vacuum.
Sound waves cannot travel through a vacuum because it needs a medium and a vacuum has nothing within it that can act as a medium.
