Speed of the light is

Multiple Choice Options

  • A the same in medium-1 and medium-2
  • B larger in medium-1 than in medium-2
  • C larger in medium-2 than in medium-1
  • D different at b and d

Step-by-Step Verified Solution

The gap between consecutive wave fronts in medium 2 is less than that in medium 1. Therefore, wavelength of light in medium 2 in less than that in medium 1. Therefore, speed of light is more in medium 1 and less in medium 2.
