Given

The refractive index of water is

[tex]\mu=1.33[/tex]

To find

The speed of light in water

Explanation

Speed of light in a medium is:

[tex]v=\frac{c}{\mu}[/tex]

Putting the values,

[tex]\begin{gathered} v=\frac{3\times10^8}{1.33} \\ \Rightarrow v=2.25\times10^8\text{ m/s} \end{gathered}[/tex]

Conclusion

The speed of light in water is

[tex]2.25\times10^8\text{ m/s}[/tex]
