An index ratio typically refers to a comparison between two index values, often highlighting the relative performance or change between them. It is calculated by dividing one index value by the other and can be used to assess trends, differences, or shifts in data sets represented by the indices.
Refractive index is a dimensionless quantity because it is the ratio of the speed of light in a vacuum to the speed of light in a medium. Since it is a ratio of two similar quantities, it does not have any units.
It is adimensional, meaning it is notdimensional.
The spring index is the ratio (C) of the coil diameter (D) to wire diameter (d), such that C = D/d. A tightly wound spring (where a relatively large wire diameter is wound around a relatively small diameter mandrel) will have a low spring index. Note: The spring index (C) should not be confused with the spring rate, which is the ratio (k) of the force (F) to displacement (x), such that k = F/x.
The ratio that is nearly constant for light traveling from air into acrylic is the refractive index. The refractive index is a measure of how much the speed of light is reduced when it travels through a medium, and it helps determine how much light is bent or refracted as it enters a new material.
"The refractive index of water is 4 / 3" means the refractive index of water with respect to air. "The refractive index of glass is 3 /2" means the refractive index of glass with respect to air. You change the question as ," what is the refractive index of glass with respect to water? The answer is it is the ratio of refractive index of of glass with respect to air to the refractive index of water with respect to air =( 3/2) divided by( 4/3) = 1.125
It is usually expressed the other way: the ratio of the speed of light in a vacuum to the speed of light in a medium. In that case, it is called the "index of refraction".
it is the ratio of tensile strength to the flexural strength
The refractive index is the ratio of the speed of light in a vacuum to the speed of light in a medium.
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.
The average PE ratio for companies in the SP 500 index is around 25. This ratio is a measure of a company's stock price relative to its earnings per share.
It is an ordinal since gingival index uses 0-3 scale

The index of refraction.

Modulation Index is the ratio of the maximum deviation frequency to the frequency of modulation. In other words it is the ratio of the spread in frequency spectrum to the frequency that was used to modulate the carrier. For FM, modulation index is given by the formula mf= df/f where, mf=modulation index for FM df=difference in carrier frequency f=frequency of the signal
The Ratio of Earned Value to Planned Value is called the Schedule Performance Index. SPI = EV/PV
3x5 is the standard size as it closely follows the golden ratio
