... Light travels at about 3/4 of its vacuum speed (0.75 c ) in water and about 2/3 its vacuum speed (0.67 c ) in glass. The reason for this slowing is because when light strikes an atom it must interact with its electron cloud. If light travels from one medium to another, and if the speeds in these med ...
