उत्तर
The spectrum of visible light whose frequency is less than that of green light will come out to the air medium.
Explanation:
`sin i_C = 1/n` and `n prop 1/lambda`
For greater wavelength (i.e., lesser frequency) n is less. Hence, iC would be more. Thus, these wavelengths will not suffer internal reflection and come out at angles less than 90°.
