  1. A increase
  2. B remains the same
  3. C first decreases then increases
  4. D decrease
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) increase

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(\mu_{violet} > \mu_{orange}\) From \(\frac{1}{f} = (\mu - 1)\left(\frac{1}{R_1} - \frac{1}{R_2}\right)\), \(f \propto \frac{1}{\mu - 1}\). Since \(\mu_{orange} f_{violet}\). increase
