Given

The index of refraction is n=1.50

To find

What is the speed of light in benzene?

Explanation

Let the speed of light in benzene be v

The speed of light in vaccum be

[tex]c=3\times\frac{10^8m}{s}[/tex]

Thus ,

[tex]\begin{gathered} v=\frac{c}{n} \\ \Rightarrow v=\frac{3\times10^8}{1.5} \\ \Rightarrow v=2\times10^8\text{ m/s} \end{gathered}[/tex]

Conlusion

The speed of light in benzene is

[tex]2\times10^8\text{ m/s}[/tex]
