Answer:

5.13*10^51 Hz

Step-by-step explanation:

We use the Modern Physics equation:

E=hf

E= energy (in this case, it's 3.4x10^18)

h= Planck's constant (6.63*10^-34)

f= Frequency

Plug the values in:

3.4x10^18= 6.63*10^-34 (f)

Divide both sides by 6.63*10^-34 to get a frequency of 5.13*10^51 Hz
