Which, among frequency, wave length and ...

Which, among frequency, wave length and velocity of light, will remain constant as light enters from air into glass ?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Frequency. This is because `f=(c)/(lambda)= (v)/(lambda.)`. As velocity of light decreases in a denser medium, so does the wavelength. The ratio still remains a constant.
