3. El ojo es sensible a ondas electromagnéticas cuyas longitudes de onda están comprendidas en el entorno de 4 x 10 -7m y 7 x 10 -7m aproximadamente. ¿Cuáles son las frecuencias de esos valores límites sabiendo que la velocidad de la luz c = 3 x 108 m/s.

Answer:
7.5(10)^(14) Hz and
4.28(10)^(14) Hz

Step-by-step explanation:

The question in english is written below:

The eye is sensitive to electromagnetic waves whose wavelengths are approximately between
4(10)^(-7)m and
7(10)^(-7)m. What are the frequencies of these limit values ​​knowing that the speed of light
c=3(10)^(8) m/s?

There is an inverse relationship between the frequency
\\u and the wavelength
\lambda:


\\u=(c)/(\lambda) (1)

Where:


c=3(10)^(8) m/s is the speed of light


\lambda is the wavelength

Knowing this, we can find the frequency for the given wavelengths:

a) For
\lambda_(1)=4(10)^(-7)m


\\u=(3(10)^(8) m/s)/(4(10)^(-7)m)


\\u=7.5(10)^(14)s^(-1)=7.5(10)^(14) Hz

b) For
\lambda_(2)=7(10)^(-7)m


\\u=(3(10)^(8) m/s)/(7(10)^(-7)m)


\\u=4.28(10)^(14)s^(-1)=4.28(10)^(14) Hz
