A short pulse of white light is incident from air to a glass slab at normal incidence. After travelling through the slab, the first color to emerge is.

A

blue

B

green

C

violent

D

red

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Since `vproplambda`, the light of red colour is of highest wavelength and therefore of highest speed. Therefore, after travelling through the slab, the red colour emerge first.
