Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To find the wavelength of light in a medium with a refractive index of 1.5, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the relationship between wavelength, frequency, and speed of light The speed of light (c) in a vacuum is related to its wavelength (λ) and frequency (f) by the equation: \[ c = \lambda \cdot f \] ### Step 2: Calculate the speed of light in the medium The refractive index (n) of a medium is defined as the ratio of the speed of light in vacuum (c) to the speed of light in the medium (v): ...
