उत्तर

We know that V = f λ

air μ glass = `"Velocity in vacuum or air"/"Velocity in glass"`

`3/2 = (f  "air" xx λ  "air")/(f  "glass"  xx λ  "glass")`

However, light's frequency does not change as it refracts.

∴ f air = f glass

∴ `3/2 = (λ  "air")/(λ  "glass")`

λ glass = wave length in glass = `2/3 λ` air

λ glass = `2/3 xx 6600`

= 4400 Å
