Answer» Explanation:When a ray of LIGHT ENTERS a glass slab from air then its speed decreases as it encounters a dense medium. Since to conserve energy (which is dependent solely on FREQUENCY), the frequency must remain CONSTANT, the wavelength of light changes. Wavelength is decreased by a FACTOR called refractive index of the medium. |
