    The wavelength of sodium light in air is \[\text{589}0\overset{{}^\circ }{\mathop{\text{A}}}\,.\]The velocity of light in air is \[3\times {{10}^{-8}}m{{s}^{-1}}.\]The wavelength of light in a glass of refractive index 1.6, would be close to

    A) \[5890\overset{\text{o}}{\mathop{\text{A}}}\,\]

    B) \[3680\overset{\text{o}}{\mathop{\text{A}}}\,\]

    C) \[9424\overset{\text{o}}{\mathop{\text{A}}}\,\]

    D) \[15078\overset{\text{o}}{\mathop{\text{A}}}\,\]

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

     Frequency doesn?t depend on medium \[\frac{{{\mu }_{1}}}{{{\mu }_{2}}}=\frac{{{V}_{2}}}{{{V}_{1}}}=\frac{{{\lambda }_{2}}f}{{{\lambda }_{1}}f},\]or\[{{\mu }_{2}}{{\lambda }_{2}}={{\lambda }_{1}}{{\mu }_{1}}\] \[{{\mu }_{2}}=3680\overset{\text{o}}{\mathop{\text{A}}}\,\]
