An electromagnetic wave of frequencyυ=3.0 MHzpasses from vacuum into a dielectric medium with permittivityε=4.0. Then

Options:

Answer:
C
Solution:

During propagation of a wave from one medium to another, the frequency remains constant and wavelength changes.

μ=εε0=4=2

Sinceμ∝1λ

∴ Wavelength is halved
Hence option (wavelength is halved and frequency remains unchanged) holds good.
