    The frequency of a light ray is \[6\times {{10}^{4}}\,\,Hz\]. Its frequency when it propagates in a medium of refractive index 1.5, will be:

    A)  \[1.6\times {{10}^{14}}\,\,Hz\]

    B)  \[9.10\times {{10}^{14}}\,\,Hz\]

    C)  \[6\times {{10}^{14}}\,\,Hz\]

    D)  \[4\times {{10}^{14}}\,\,Hz\]

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

     When a ray of light passes from one medium to another, then its frequency does not change, but its speed and wavelength change. Hence, its frequency in a medium of refractive index \[1.5\] is \[6\times {{10}^{14}}Hz\]. Note: Intensity of light also changes, because a part of it is reflected.
