AI Generated Solution

To find the refractive index of the liquid, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Convert the frequency to standard units The frequency of light is given as 500 terahertz (THz). We need to convert this to hertz (Hz): \[ \text{Frequency} (f) = 500 \, \text{THz} = 500 \times 10^{12} \, \text{Hz} \] ...
