What is the definition of average speed called?
It is called a definition.
How long would it take for the speed of light to travel a quintillon miles?
The speed of light doesn't travel anywhere. However, light itself, traveling through vacuum at the speed of light, covers 1 quintillion miles in about 170,108 years. That's less than 7 percent of the distance to the nearest galaxy. (Note: The American definition of 'quintillion' is used . . . 1 x 1018 . Using the British definition of the same word (1030), the answer is the same, only 1 trillion times bigger.)
When the mineral uvarovite has an index of refraction of 1.86. calculate the speed of light in this sample of uvarovite.?
Use the definition of "index of refraction". In this case, you simply need to divide the speed of light in a vacuum by the index of refraction.
Formula for refractive index in terms of speed of light in vacuum and speed of light in a medium?
Refractive Index= Speed of Light in Vaccum / Speed of Light in the material
What travels at 300 000 km per second?
That is the speed of light.That is the speed of light.That is the speed of light.That is the speed of light.
