The correct choice is:

a) Quantities described by both magnitude and direction

In fact, vectors are characterized by a magnitude and a direction. An example of vector quantity is velocity: the velocity of an object consists of a magnitude (which corresponds to the speed of the object) and a direction.

Answer:

$v=2.58\times10^8m/s$

Explanation:

The index of refraction is equal to the speed of light c in vacuum divided by its speed v in a substance, or $n=\frac{c}{v}$ . For our case we want to use $v=\frac{c}{n}$ , which for our values is equal to:

$v=\frac{c}{n}=\frac{299792458m/s}{1.16}=258441774.138m/s$

Which we will express with 3 significant figures (since a product or quotient must contain the same number of significant figures as the measurement with the <em>least</em> number of significant figures):

$v=2.58\times10^8m/s$
