Answer:

5.131 × 10¹⁴ Hz

Explanation:

Planck relation


\large\boxed{E = hf}

where:

  • E = Energy of the photon (J).
  • h = Planck's constant (J · s).
  • f = frequency of light produced (Hz).

Given values:

  • E = 3.4 × 10⁻¹⁹ J
  • h = 6.626 × 10⁻³⁴ J · s

Substitute the given values into the formula and solve for f:


\implies 3.4 * 10^(-19)=(6.626 * 10^(-34))f


\implies f=(3.4 * 10^(-19))/(6.626 * 10^(-34))


\implies f=(3.4)/(6.626) * (10^(-19))/(10^(-34))


\implies f=0.5131* 10^((-19-(-34)))


\implies f=0.5131 * 10^(15)


\implies f=5.131 * 10^(14)
