Blue light travelling in a vacuum has a wavelength of $450 \ nm$. It enters a medium whose refractive index is $1.5$. What is its frequency in the medium? $(Speed of light in vacuum = 3 \times 10^8 \ m \ s^{-1})$

The speed of light in a medium is $200 \times 10^8 \text{ cm/s}$. The refractive index of the medium is . . . . . . $(c = 3 \times 10^8 \text{ m/s})$.

When a light ray enters from medium $i$ to medium $j$,if $_i\mu_j$ represents the refractive index,what is the product of $_2\mu_1 \times _3\mu_2 \times _4\mu_3$?

The difference of speed of light in the two media $A$ and $B$ $(v_{A}-v_{B})$ is $2.6 \times 10^{7} \, m/s$. If the refractive index of medium $B$ is $1.47$,then the ratio of refractive index of medium $B$ to medium $A$ is: (Given: speed of light in vacuum $c = 3 \times 10^{8} \, m/s$)
