No, it is only refracted at each clear air to glass surface, even if the refractive index of the glass changes.
If an air to glass lens is vacuum coated with a fluoride film, it impoves the tranmision of light through the lens, e.g. the front lens of a telescope. The film can improve the tranmission of light by one half of a wave length. This trechnolgy was used by the British Navy during WW2 against the German warship the Graff Spay and others. The British vessels were able to see the enemy before they could be seen and were able to fire the first shots.
Light does not change speed when it goes through glass.
the speed of light it different when it is passed through air, water or glass because all these have different optical densities. Speed of light is fastest in air, slower in water and slowest in glass.
Most forms of glass do not change the speed of light. Darker glass lets less light through it Glass at an angle to light may refract ( bend) light or glass may break light up into all the colours the light is made of rainbow / spectrum. The only way anyone has successfully stopped and restarted light is using magnetic beams

It about 2*10^8 m/s.The speed of light is slower when passing through glass, or any other transparent substance, compared to the speed of light passing through a vacuum. The actual speed depends on the refractive index of the glass, which depends on the composition of the glass.
Light does not change speed when it goes through glass.
It will depend on the type of glass, and something called its refractive index. All materials have a refractive index which will effect the speed of the light through it. The speed of light through a vacuum is 3.0x10^8 m/s, and a material such as glass will be lower than this.
The light refracts due to the change in speed. The change in speed occurs because the light is travelling through a denser medium. So it will travel fastest through the air and slowest through the glass
Light speed slows down in the glass.
Change in speed of the light in glass. Fermat showed that time is invariant in light paths. This results in Light following the Law of Signs. sin(Air Angle)/speed in air = sin( Glass Angle)/speed in glass .
speed of light will decreases
No, it does not. The speed of light always remains constant; it may be slowed down slightly when travelling through certain mediums (e.g. water, glass, air), but it cannot increase.
It all depends on the angle if incidence. In general the light will refract i.e. bend through the glass and come out at the other end. Also, the speed of light will vary through the glass.
the speed of light it different when it is passed through air, water or glass because all these have different optical densities. Speed of light is fastest in air, slower in water and slowest in glass.
The speed of light is minimum in Glass. It is because light travels at minimum speed in solids.
The speed of light varies because the absolute speed of light "C" is measured in a vacuum. When light travels through air, it goes slightly slower. When light travels through denser mediums still, such as glass, the speed decreases further still.
A "fact" is basically anything you can state, especially if such a statement is true. Since you can say "light has a speed", and since that is true, it follows that it's a fact. Light through a "vacuum" is the meaning of "the speed of light." Light through glass is slower.
