When light goes from one material into another material having a HIGHER index of refraction, A) its speed and wavelength decrease, but the frequency remains the same. B) its speed, wavelength, and frequency all decrease. C) its speed decreases but its frequency and wavelength stay the same. D) its speed increases, its wavelength decreases, and its frequency stays the same.
What is the cause of refraction of a wave traveling from one medium to another? There is a change in wave amplitude due to the change in the medium. There is a speed change due to the change in the medium. None of the above are associated with refraction. There is a frequency change due to the change in the medium
5. A monochromatic ray of light with frequency f= 6.00 x 1014 Hz is traveling in medium #1 with index of refraction ni = 1.45. It strikes the interface with medium #2 at an incident angle 0; = 15.0° with respect to the normal. The index of refraction for medium #2 is n2 = 1.30. (a) What are the speed and wavelength of the initial ray of light? (b) What is the frequency of the transmitted ray of light? (c)...

In thin film interference, an (a) incident wave reflects off of the front interface of the thin film and (b) refracts into the thin film.This refracted wave then (c) reflects off of the back interface of the thin film yet also (d) transmits through the film.This reflected wave then (e) refracts back through the front interface of the thin film in order to interfere with the wave that initially reflected off of the front interface.Apply the Fresnel equations that we...
Please help with this 4 part question Light with wavelength = 700.0000nm is incident on a double slit with spacing d=50.00000micrometers. The distance to the screed is 0.5000meters. What is the spacing between neighboring constructive fringes near the center of the screen? (in meters) Light with wavelength 500nm is incident upon a surface at an angle of 40.0 degrees, refracts and enters a second medium. The light that enters the second medium travels faster than in the first medium. Compared...
