To find the wavelength of light in water given its wavelength in glass, we can use the relationship between the refractive index and wavelength. Here's the step-by-step solution: ### Step 1: Understand the relationship between refractive index and wavelength The refractive index (μ) of a medium is inversely proportional to the wavelength (λ) of light in that medium. This can be expressed as: \[ \frac{\lambda_g}{\lambda_w} = \frac{\mu_w}{\mu_g} \] where: ...
