Question

A light has a frequency of 6.2 x 1016 Hz. What is the wavelength in meters?

Answer 1

λ = 0. 484 × 10⁻⁸ m

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data:

Frequency = 6.2 × 10¹⁶ Hz

Wavelength = ?

Solution:

Formula:

Wavelength = speed of light / frequency

speed of light = 3 ×10⁸ m/s

λ = c / f

λ = 3 ×10⁸ m/s / 6.2 × 10¹⁶ s⁻¹

λ = 0. 484 × 10⁻⁸ m
