Question
When light is refracted from air into glass
✓
Answer
When light is refracted from air into a glass its wavelength decrease but frequency remain unchanged.
$\mu \propto \frac{1}{\lambda} \text {. As } \lambda_{ b } < \lambda_{ g }$
$\text { but } \Rightarrow f _{ b }= f _{ g }$

$A$ block of mass $m$ moving with a velocity $v_0$ on a smooth horizontal surface strikes and compresses a spring of stiffness $k$ till mass comes to rest as shown in the figure. This phenomenon is observed by two observers:
→$A$: standing on the horizontal surface
$B$: standing on the block
According to observer $B$, the potential energy of the spring increases
