Light has a wavelength600 nmin free space. It passes into the glass, which has an index of refraction of1.50. What is the frequency of the light inside the glass?

Options:

Answer:
B
Solution:

Given, the wavelength of light=600 nm

=600×10-9 m

n=1.5

As the frequency of light cannot change,c=νλ

Speed of light in free space=3×108 m s-1

∴3×108=ν×600×10-9

⇒ν=3×108600×10-9

=5×1014 Hz
