Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To find the refractive index of material X with respect to material Y, we can use the relationship between the refractive indices of the materials with respect to air. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understand the Refractive Index**: The refractive index (n) of a material with respect to air is defined as the ratio of the speed of light in air (c) to the speed of light in that material (v). \[ n = \frac{c}{v} ...
