I am pretty perplexed by this question from BR Physics chapter 10, section 1
14.) What is true of different colors of light in a Medium?
C.) As speed decreases, the Wavelength decreases
D.) As frequency increases, the Wavelength decreases.
I am wondering why exactly choice D is favored over choice C. The BR says that "there is no distinct relationship between speed and wavelength." But then in the answer explanation for #18, "If the wave speed of the light is reduced, then the wavelength is also reduced.
