A light of wavelength 6000 A travels from rarer medium to denser medium of refractive index 1.5, If its frequncy in rarer medium is `5 xx 10^(14)` Hz, then its frequency in denser medium will be

A

`3.3 xx 10^(14) Hz`

B

`5 xx 10^(14) Hz`

C

`2.5 xx 10^(7)m`

D

`7.5 xx 10^(14) Hz`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B

`lambda_(a) = 6000Å, mu_(m) = 1.5 xx 10^(14) Hz, n_(d) = ?`
`n_(d) = n_(a) = 5 xx 10^(14)Hz`
Since due to refraction of light there is no change in frequency of light.
