Questions  

An electromagnetic wave of frequency f = 3.0 MHz passes from vacuum into a dielectric medium with relative permittivity εr=4.0 and  relative permeability μr =1.0 Then

a
Wavelength is halved and frequency remains unchanged
b
Wavelength is doubled and frequency becomes half
c
Wavelength is doubled and the frequency remains unchanged
d
Wavelength and frequency both remain unchanged

detailed solution

Correct option is A

Frequency remains constant during refraction  vmed=1μ0∈0×μr∈r=1μ0∈0×4=c2  Now,  λmedλair=vmedvair=c/2c=12     ∴Wavelength is halved and frequency remains unchanged.
