Question

PLEASEEEE HELP
Blue light of wavelength 435 nm
enters diamond (n = 2.42). What
is the wavelength of the light in
diamond?
(Unit = nm)

Answer 1

Answer:

Wavelength of light in  diamond λ2 = 179.75 nm (Approx.)

Explanation:

Given:

Blue light of wavelength λ1 = 435 nm

n2 in diamond = 2.42

Find:

Wavelength of light in  diamond λ2

Computation:

Since the wavelength is smaller, the frequency stays constant. The frequency of vibrations does not shift when they pass from one source to the next.

So,

n1λ1 = n2λ2

(1)(435) = (2.42)λ2

Wavelength of light in  diamond λ2 = 179.75 nm (Approx.)
