What happens to the wavelength of light as it passes from air to glass?
- A Increases
- B Decreases
- C Stays the same
- D Depends on the angle of incidence
That's Correct!
It's Wrong!
As light passes from air to glass, its wavelength decreases due to the decrease in speed of light in the denser medium. This change in wavelength, governed by Snell's law, contributes to phenomena such as refraction and dispersion observed in optics.
