Refraction, Glass Slab & Apparent Depth

When light enters glass from vacuum, then the wavelength of light

Show answer and solution

Answer: (a)

  1. Frequency is unchanged; speed drops to cμ\frac{c}{\mu}.
  2. λ=vf\lambda = \frac{v}{f}, so λ′=λμ<λ\lambda' = \frac{\lambda}{\mu} < \lambda.
  3. So the answer is (a) decreases.
