A Ray of light enters into benzene from air if the refractive index of benzene is 1.50 by what percent the speed of light reduces while entering into benzene

Dear Student
c/vair = 1.003
c/vben =1.50
vben /vair = 1.0003/1.50 =speed of light in air / speed of i=light in benzene
 decreasing in speed = [(vair -vben) * 100 ] / vair  = (1 - vben / vair) * 100
                                  = (1-1.003/1.50)* 100
                                  =  33.37%
