Answer:


\lambda=2.2x10^(-4)m

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

In this case, since the relationship between energy and wavelength is defined via the speed of light and the Planck's constant as shown below:


e=(c*h)/(\lambda)

Since c stands for the speed of light and h for the so-called Planck's constant, we can compute the wavelength as follows:


\lambda=(c*h)/(e)=(3.0x10^8m/s*6.626x10^(-34)J*s)/(9.2x10^(-22)J)\\\\\lambda=2.2x10^(-4)m

Best regards!
