$(a)$ The refractive index of glass is $1.5$. What is the speed of light in glass? (Speed of light in vacuum is $3.0 \times 10^{8} \; m/s$).
$(b)$ Is the speed of light in glass independent of the colour of light? If not,which of the two colours,red or violet,travels slower in a glass prism?

In refraction,light waves are bent on passing from one medium to a second medium because,in the second medium,

As shown in the figure,after passing through medium $1$,the speed of light $v_{2}$ in medium $2$ will be $..... \times 10^{8} \, ms^{-1}$. (Given $c = 3 \times 10^{8} \, ms^{-1}$)
