It will depend on the type of glass, and something called its refractive index. All materials have a refractive index which will effect the speed of the light through it. The speed of light through a vacuum is 3.0x10^8 m/s, and a material such as glass will be lower than this.

How does the speed of microwaves compare to the speed of visible light when measured in a vacuum?
They are equal.
How does the average speed of light in glass compass with its speed in a vacuum?
There are several different types of glass, and light has a somewhat different speed in each of them. On the average, the speed of light across all typical types of glass is in the neighborhood of 2/3 its speed in vacuum, or around 200,000 km/sec .
How does the speed of light that emerges from a pane of glass compare with the speed of light incident on the glass?
Those speeds are equal, even though the speed of the light was temporarily less while it was inside the glass.

Compare and contrast the speed in water and in the glass?
The speed of light in water is slower than in a vacuum. This is due to the higher refractive index of water compared to air, causing light to bend more in water. In a glass, the speed of light is also slower compared to a vacuum, though the exact speed will depend on the composition of the glass.
Where will be speed of light minimum-water or air or vacuum or glass?
The speed of light is minimum in Glass. It is because light travels at minimum speed in solids.
How does the speed of visible light compare with the speed of gamma rays when both speeds are measured in a vacuum?
The speed of light in glass is the reciprocal of the refractive index of the glass or 1/(refractive index). Not all glass is the same: its refractive index can range from less than 1.5 for Pyrex (a borosilicate glass) to more than 1.9 for (impure) flint glass. This means the speed of light in glass can range between 0.52 and 0.68 of its speed in vacuum.
Does the speed of light minimum in air or water or glass or vacuum?

What distance does light travel in glass during the time that it travels 1.0 meters in vacuum?
Light travels at a slower speed in glass compared to vacuum. The ratio of the speed of light in vacuum to the speed of light in glass is called the refractive index of glass. So, the distance light travels in glass would be the distance it travels in vacuum divided by the refractive index of glass.

What is the speed of light in light flint?
The refractive index of flint glass is 1.6, approx. This means that the speed of light in flint glass is 1/1.6 of its speed in vacuum. This makes it 187,380,000 metres per second.
