A ray of light with wavelength 5000 nm travelling from a medium with refractive index `(3/2)` suffers partial reflection and refraction in a medium of refractive index `(4/3)`. Find wavelength of reflected and refracted ray.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Med.1 `lamda_1=5000 nm, v_1=c/mu_1,f=v_1/lamda_1`
Med.2 `f=v_1/lamda_1=v_2/lamda_2,v_2=c/mu_2` putting values we get `lamda_2=5625nm`
