Detailed Solution

The relative refractive index=0.80

The wavelength of light = 6000 AI

The speed of light in the first medium = 2.4 x 108 m/s

Now, as we know that the frequency does not change with a change in refractive index, we can find the frequency in the second medium by putting the respective values in

f = c/λ

f = 2.4 ×1086000 × 10-10Hz

f = 4 x 1014Hz
