Question

What is the frequency of a particular type of electromagnetic

radiation with a wavelength of 5.00 x 10-8 m?|

Answer 1

f = 0.6× 10¹⁶ Hz

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data:

Wavelength of radiation = 5.00 × 10⁻⁸ m

Frequency of radiation = ?

Solution:

Formula:

Speed of light = wavelength × frequency

speed of light = 3 × 10⁸m/s

Now we will put he values in formula.

3 × 10⁸m/s = 5.00 × 10⁻⁸ m × f

f = 3 × 10⁸m/s / 5.00 × 10⁻⁸ m

f = 0.6× 10¹⁶ s⁻¹

s⁻¹ = Hz

f = 0.6× 10¹⁶ Hz
