  1. Question 1

    Q1. When light passes from air into glass, which property of light remains unchanged?

    • A) Wavelength
    • B) Speed
    • C) Frequency
    • D) Amplitude

    Answer: Frequency

    Explanation: Frequency is determined by the source of the wave and remains constant as light passes between media; speed and wavelength both change (λ = v/f), but frequency is conserved, which is why colour (frequency) does not change on refraction.
