Answer:
The speed decreases 75%.
Explanation:
- Since no friction present, assuming no external forces acting during the three collisions, total momentum must be conserved.
- For the first collission, only mass 1 is moving before it, so we can write the following equation:
- Since both masses are identical, and they stick together after the collision, we can express the final momentum as follows:
- From (1) and (2) we get:
- v₁ = v₀/2 (3)
- Since the masses are moving on a frictionless 1D track, the speed of the set of mass 1 and 2 combined together before colliding with mass 3 is just v₁, so the initial momentum prior the second collision (p₁) can be expressed as follows:
- Since after the collision the three masses stick together, we can express this final momentum (p₂) as follows:
- From (4) and (5) we get:
- v₂ = v₀/3 (6)
- Since the masses are moving on a frictionless 1D track, the speed of the set of mass 1, 2 and 3 combined together before colliding with mass 4 is just v₂, so the initial momentum prior the third collision (p₂) can be expressed as follows:
- Since after the collision the four masses stick together, we can express this final momentum (p₃) as follows:
- From (7) and (8) we get:
- v₃ = v₀/4
- This means that after the last collision, the speed will have been reduced to a 25% of the initial value, so it will have been reduced in a 75% regarding the initial value of v₀.

Explanation:
The refractive index of a medium is a measure to know how much the speed of light within the medium is reduced. It can be calculated with the next equation:
(1)
Where:
The speed of light in the vacuum is approximately 300,000 km/s. In order to work with the same units let's do the proper conversion with the velocity of the medium:
Finally, replacing the data in (1):
