When light passes through a medium, along with elastic scattering, inelastic scattering of photons also occurs, associated, in particular, with their interaction with the vibrational degrees of freedom of molecules - Raman scattering. Estimate the ratio of the intensities of the violet and red satellites in the spectrum of scattered monochromatic radiation from molecules of carbon tetrachloride CCl4 at a temperature of 27°C, if it is known that the inverse wavelength of the corresponding transition in the vibrational spectrum is 1/l = 217 s
