Example Question #3 : Principles Of Quantum Mechanics
A beam of light is traveling at approximately in a very dense medium. Given that the frequency of the light beam is
, what is the wavelength of the light beam? Suppose that the speed of light in a vacuum is
.
Possible Answers:
Correct answer:
Explanation:
The wavelength of the light beam doesn't depend on the speed through the medium. As such, as can solve for wavelength by simply solving:
Where is frequency and
is the speed of light in a vacuum.
