(a)
The frequency of an electromagnetic wave is given by:
where
is the speed of the wave in a vacuum (speed of light)
is the wavelength
In this problem, we have laser light with wavelength
. Substituting into the formula, we find its frequency:
(b) 427.6 nm
The wavelength of an electromagnetic wave in a medium is given by:
where
is the original wavelength in a vacuum (approximately equal to that in air)
is the index of refraction of the medium
In this problem, we have
n = 1.48 (index of refraction of glass)
Substituting into the formula,
(c)
The speed of an electromagnetic wave in a medium is
where c is the speed of light in a vacuum and n is the refractive index of the medium.
Since in this problem n=1.48, we find
