Explanation / Answer

a) when light travels from one medium to other medium, its frequency remains same.

fg = fa

vg/lamda_g = va/lamda_a

(c/ng)/lamda_g = (c/na)/lamda_a

1/(ng*lamda_g) = 1/(na*lamda_a)

==> lamda_g = lamda_a*(na/ng) <<<<<<<<<<<-------------Answer

b) when light travels from one medium to other medium, its frequency remains same.

fg = fa

vg/lamda_g = va/lamda_a

vg = va*(lamda_g/lamda_a)

= va*(na/ng) <<<<<<<<<<<-------------Answer

c) vg = va*(na/ng)

= 3*10^8*(1/1.75)

= 1.71*10^8 m/s <<<<<<<<<<<-------------Answer
