Ques. 1JEE Main 2026, 22 January (Evening Shift)

The wavelength of light, while it is passing through water is 540 nm. The refractive index of water is 4/3. The wavelength of the same light when it is passing through a transparent medium having refractive index of 3/2 is nm.

  1. 540
  2. 840
  3. 480
  4. 380

Answer

(3) 480

Solution

Frequency does not change on refraction, so medium = 0 = 0 = constant

1 1 = 2 2

2 = 1 1 2 = 43 540 32

2 = 7201.5

2 = 480 nm

Answer: (3)
