If the refractive index of the medium is 1.36, then the speed of light in it is
c0/1.36 = 299,792,458 / 1.36 = 220,435,630 meters per second. (rounded)
Refractive index refers to the velocity of light's ratio in a vacuum to its velocity under a specified medium.
The refractive index or index of refraction of a substance is a measure of the speed of light in that substance. It is expressed as a ratio of the speed of light in vacuum relative to that in the considered medium.A simple, mathematical description of refractive index is as follows:n = velocity of light in a vacuum / velocity of light in mediumHence, the refractive index of water is 1.33, meaning that light travels 1.33 times as fast in a vacuum as it does in water.
Refractive Index: the ratio of the velocity of light in a vacuum to that in the given medium
refractive index is the measure of how how fast or slow light travel through a material reference to the speed of light in empty space.
Yes refractive index of the material of the medium [glass] with respect to air is high for violet and low for red.
Refractive index of the medium is defined as the ratio of the velocity of light in vacuum to that in the medium. No unit for refractive index.

It depends upon the material of the substance
None. The radius of the lens depends on its shape, the refractive index depends on the material that the lens is made from.
Yes refractive index of the material of the medium [glass] with respect to air is high for violet and low for red.
The optical density of a medium is not the same as its physical density. The physical density of a material refers to the mass/volume ratio. Optical density determines how much a light wave is slowed down as it passes through a medium. The more optically dense a material is, the slower that a wave will move through the material.The refractive index is a measurement of optical density. A medium with a low optical density, would have also a low refractive index.For example air, having a low optical density has a refractive index of 1.0003, whereas water, with a higher optical density, has a higher refractive index of 1.333.
The ratio of the velocity of light in a vacuum to that in a medium is the refractive index of a lens. It is represented by n = c/v, where n = refractive index , v = characteristic speed and c = speed of light 299792 kmsec-1 or 1 Planck speed.
Refractive Index= Speed of Light in Vaccum / Speed of Light in the material
