Answer part (d)
d) (i) Why is the ratio of the velocities of light of wavelengths 4000 A and 8000 A in vacuum 1:1 ?
     (ii) which of the above wavelengths has a higher frequency ?

Dear student,i) the speed of light in vacuum is constant for any wavelength i.e, 3×108m/sThis is why the ratio for two given wavelength is 1:1ii)frequency=cλit shows the light having greater wavelength will have small frequency,So light of wavelength 4000Angstrom will have higher frequency.Regards

In vaccum
  • -1
Speed of light is constant in a vaccum irrespective of their wavelength - Law of bulk's modulus
