The absolute refractive index of glycerine is 1.47. Calculate the speed of light in glycerine. Take the speed of light in vacuum as 3.0×108 m s−13.0\times10^{8}\,\text{m s}^{-1}. a) 1.41×108 m s−11.41\times10^{8}\,\text{m s}^{-1} b) 4.41×108 m s−14.41\times10^{8}\,\text{m s}^{-1} c) 2.0×108 m s−12.0\times10^{8}\,\text{m s}^{-1} d) 2.9×107 m s−12.9\times10^{7}\,\text{m s}^{-1}
