Question

If the wavelength of orange light is 6 · 10-7 m, calculate its frequency. f = _______ Hz

Answer 1

Answer:

Frequency of orange light = $5 \times 10^{14}$ Hz

Explanation:

We are given the wavelength of the orange light and we are to find the value of its frequency.

Wavelength of orange light = $6.0 \times 10^{-7} m$

We know that:

Speed of light = Frequency of orange light × Wavelength of orange light

Substituting the values in the above formula:

$3 \times 10^8$ = Frequency of orange light × $6.0\times10^{-7}$

Frequency of orange light = $\frac{3 \times 10^8}{6\times10^{-7}} =5 \times 10^{14}$ Hz
