Wavelength does not change with the speed of light, nor does the speed of light change for different wave lengths. Wavelength x frequency = c (the speed of light) always for any given medium through which it travels. Greater wavelength yields lower frequency, so the speed is always the same. Speed changes as light passes into different media transparent to light, but the change in speed has nothing to do with any change in frequency or wavelength. Those are related only to the nature of the material and the particular light energies it may pass or absorb. So white light passing through a red filter emerges red because the blue and green frequencies have been absorbed by the filtering material. That change in wavelength and frequency is not related to any change in speed within the filter.
The constancy of the speed of light in vacuum is the keystone of relativity. Because of this, the frequency/wavelenth of the light changes relative to the observer when the source is approaching or receding from the observer. That's why there is red shift. Usually, this is explained by analogy to the Doppler effect with sound waves, where the speed of sound is constant and the frequency has to changes as the relative motion changes.
Electromagnetic waves, like light, do involve changes in the electric and the magnetic field. These changes propagate at the speed of light - as a wave.Electromagnetic waves, like light, do involve changes in the electric and the magnetic field.

Diffraction.
No wavelenth.
Assuming the speed of light in air is already known (it is close to the speed of light in a vacuum), you might check how the light refracts when it changes from air to water (at what angle), and then use Snell's Law.

wave speed= frequency/wavelenth
speed=frequency x wavelenth xD

When light enters a different medium (refracts), its speed changes.
The speed of light in a vacuum never changes.
light undergoes refraction when the matter changes the speed of light
No.
