The velocity of propagation of a uniform plane wave, given by (a) the product of the wavelength and the frequency divided by (b) the refractive index of the medium in which the wave is propagating. (188) Note 1: In free space, the refractive index may be considered as unity. Note 2: In free space, the group velocity and the phase velocity are equal.
