When the mineral uvarovite has an index of refraction of 1.86. calculate the speed of light in this sample of uvarovite?
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.

No, kyanite is an indicator of high pressure metamorphism.
How is T-score related to stiffness index in bone mineral density test?
The T-score is related to the Stiffness Index, because the Index is used to determine the T-score. This is an expression of structure, strength, and density.
