Question

What is the energy of an electromagnetic wave that has a wavelength of

7.0 x 10-12 m? Use the equation E= hc where hc = 1.99 × 10-25 J-m.
OA. 2.8 × 10-14 J
OB. 1.4 x 10-36 J
OC. 9.0 x 10-37 J
OD. 7.2 x 1035 J

Answer 1

A: 2.8 * 10^(-14) J

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula to find the energy is;

E = hc/λ

Where;

E is energy of a photon (E)

λ is wavelength of the light

c is speed of light

Thus;

E = (1.99 *10^(-25))/(7 * 10^(-12))

E = 2.8 * 10^(-14) J
