2) wavelength

3) speed

3 only

1 & 3

2 & 3

1, 2 & 3

- When light passes from one medium to another:

- Its speed changes. This is why refraction happens.

- Its wavelength changes. The wavelength adjusts to maintain the relation v = f? where ‘v’ is speed, ‘f’ is frequency, and ‘?’ is wavelength.

- Its frequency does not change. The frequency remains constant across media because the source determines it.

Option 1 (speed & frequency): ?

Option 2 (wavelength, speed & frequency): ?

Option 3 (speed & wavelength): (Correct Answer)

Option 4 (all three): ?

Correct answer is Option: 3, 2 & 3
