Answer #1

1)f *lamda =c (in air)

f= c/lamda = 3 *108/632.8*10-9=4.74 *1014 Hz

2)f *lamda=frequency =c/n

lamda=c/(n*f)=3 *108/(1.48*4.74 *1014) = 427.24 nm

3)frequency =c/n=3 *108 /1.48= 202.32 M m/s

Answer #2

A) f = c/lamda = 3*10^8/632.8*10^-9 = 4.74*10^14 Hz...

B) L'= L/n = 632.8/1.48 = 427.56 nm...

C) spped = L'*f = 427.56*10^-9*4.74*10^14 = 2.026*10^8 m/sec

Answer #3

a. apply V = Lf

frequency f = v/L = 3e8/632.8nm

f = 4.74*10^14 Hz

------------------------------------------------------------------

b. L = L0/n

L = 632.8nm/1.48

L =427.56 nm
-------------------------------------------

c. apply n = c/v

v = 3e8/1.48

v =2.02 *10^8 m/s

Answer #4

a)

freq = 3x10^8/362.8x10^-9 = 4.74 x10^14 Hz

b)

from

n1/n2 = L2/L1

1/1.48 = L2/632.8

L2 = 427.56 nm

c)
speed v = c/n2 = 3x10^8 /1.48 = 2.027 x10^8 m/s
