I found five references to Lucite on-line, listing five different values between
1.4 and 1.5 for its index of refraction.
Taken on its own, this body of research places the speed of light in lucite between
c/5 to c/4, or 199,861,638.7 to 214,137,470 meters per second.
If you need a more accurate figure, or simply feel like extending my research
and building upon it, you'll be pleased to learn that internet searches are really
not that difficult.
