A photon of light enters a block of glass after travelling through vacuum. The energy of the photon on entering the glass block

A

Increases because its associated wavelength decreases

B

Decreases because the speed of the radiation decreases

C

The same because the speed of radiation and the associated wavelength do not change

D

The same because the frequency of the radiation does not change
