Need help with this physics question as well.

Scenario #2: A ray of light with a frequency of 450 Terahertz goes from air into diamond at an angle of 60° as shown in the image to the right. Air Diamond Air a) Solve for the wavelength of this incident ray and if there is a color associated with that wavelength on the visible spectrum. 0 = 60° b) Use Snell's law to calculate the refracted angle, assuming the light enters the diamond from air. Assume the index of refraction for air is n=1 and the index of refraction for diamond is n=2.42. c) After the ray is inside the diamond, determine if it will leave the diamond on the other side, or if it will be totally internally reflected. If it does leave, what angle does it exit the second surface at?
