Question

A wave has a frequency of 6.1 x 1014 Hz and a speed of 3.00 x 108 m/s. Use

Answer 1

Answer:

(A) $4.9\times 10^{-7}\ m$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Frequency of the wave (f) = $6.1\times 10^{14}\ Hz$

Speed of the wave (v) = $3.00\times 10^8\ m/s$

The wavelength equation of the wave is given as:

$\lambda=\dfrac{v}{f}$

Here, $\lambda \to wave\ wavelength$

Now, plug in the given values and simplify.

$\lambda=\frac{3\times 10^8}{6.1\times 10^{14}}\\\\\lambda=4.9\times 10^{-7}\ m$

Therefore, the wavelength of the wave is option (A) $4.9\times 10^{-7}\ m$
