2. When light passes from one medium to another, its frequency remains the same bur its wavelength changes. Light travels from air to water. The speed of light in air is 1.33 times its speed in water. Compare the wavelength of light in air to that in water. Also compare the energy in the two media.

Answer:

When waves travel from one medium to another the frequency never changes. As waves travel into the denser medium, they slow down and wavelength decreases. Part of the wave travels faster for longer causing the wave to turn. The wave is slower but the wavelength is shorter meaning frequency remains the same.

Explanation:

Hope this helps
