[QUOTE="JasonSola, post: 2962936, member: 283590"] [h2]Homework Statement [/h2] Any respond to these questions is appreciated!:biggrin: Sorry for wrong concepts(if any) but I am really poor in physics. 1)I got this from my physics book, and i can't understand it! a) Speed of electromagnetic waves in a given medium depends on their frequencies b) Speed of mechanical waves in a given medium is independent of its frequency 2) i) Suppose an electromagnetic wave, which, the frequency or the wavelength, changes when going from one medium to another? For what i know is the frequency always remain constant for a specific wave, but if so, will a visible light changes to infrared when it goes through a denser medium(since the wavelength decreases until certain extent that it no longer belongs to the original spectrum)? ii) And, does the same thing happens to mechanical waves?
