A ray of light is incident upon an air/water interface ( it passes from air into water) at an angle of `45^(@)` . Which of the following quantities change as the light enters the water? (I) wavelength `" "` (II) frequency `" "` (III) speed of propagation (IV) direction of propagationA. I , III onlyB. III, IV onlyC. I , II ,IV onlyD. I , III , IV only

Answer» Correct Answer - D
As Speed of light in vaccum/air
`mu` = Speed of light if medium
`mu = (c)/(v) implies ` velocity is different in different medium From v= n`lambda`
But frequency is the fundamental property . It never change by changing the medium hence `lambda` is also changed as v is change.
