Light Has Wavelength $600 \mathrm {~nm}$ In a Vacuum $\left( c = 3.0 \times 10 ^ { 8 } \mathrm {~m} / \mathrm { s } \right)$

Light has wavelength $600 \mathrm {~nm}$ in a vacuum. It passes into glass, which has an index of refraction of 1.5. What is the frequency of the light inside the glass? $\left( c = 3.0 \times 10 ^ { 8 } \mathrm {~m} / \mathrm { s } \right)$

A) $5.0 \times 10 ^ { 5 } \mathrm {~Hz}$
B) $3.3 \times 10 ^ { 5 } \mathrm {~Hz}$
C) $3.3 \times 10 ^ { 14 } \mathrm {~Hz}$
D) $5.0 \times 10 ^ { 14 } \mathrm {~Hz}$
