Monochromatic light having a wavelength in a vacuum of 600 n

Monochromatic light having a wavelength in a vacuum of 600 nm enters a transparent medium of refractive index 2.0. In this transparent medium, the light\'s wavelength will be: 600 nm 300 nm 150 nm 1200 nm None of the above choices are correct.

Solution

According to the given problem,

₀/ = (c/f)/(v/f) = c/v = n [refractive index],

₀/ = n

= ₀/n

= 600/2

= 300 nm
