प्रश्न
The wavelengths of violet and red light are 4000 Å and 8000 Å respectively. Which of the two has the higher frequency?

उत्तर
A higher frequency is associated with a lower wavelength. Thus, 4000 Å wavelength violet light has a greater frequency.

A student is observing a diagram showing the path of a ray of light passing through a glass prism. He would find that for all angles of incidence the ray of light bends:
As light rays pass from air into a glass prism, are they refracted towards or away from the normal?
As light rays emerge from a glass prism into air, are they refracted towards or away from the normal?

In an experiment to trace the path of a ray of light through a glass prism for different values of angle of incidence a student would find that the emergent ray:

(B) perpendicular to the incident ray
(C) is parallel to the refracted ray
(D) bends at an angle to the direction of incident ray
