I believe you're talking about displacement. It's a directional vector that depicts the movement of a point between two instances.
If i am thanking right the answer wold be (b)
From wave speed formula, period is 1.96 × 10^-15 seconds per cycle and the frequency is 5.1 × 10^14 Hertz
<h3>
What is Frequency ?</h3>
The frequency of a wave is the number of complete revolution per second made by a vibrating body.
Given that the wavelength of the yellow light from a sodium flame is 589 nm. This light originated from a sodium atom in the hot flame.
(a) In the sodium atom from which this light originated, the period of the simple harmonic motion which was the source of this electromagnetic wave will be found by using the formula
v = λ/T
Where
- v = speed of light = 300,000,000 m/s
- λ = wavelength = 589 × 10^-9 m
Substitute all the parameters
300000000 = 589 × 10^-9/T
T = 589 × 10^-9/300000000
T = 1.96 × 10^-15 seconds per cycle.
(b) The frequency of this light wave is the reciprocal of its period. That is,
F = 1/T
F = 1/1.96 × 10^-15
F = 5.1 × 10^14 Hertz
Therefore, the period of the wave is 1.96 × 10^-15 seconds per cycle and its frequency is 5.1 × 10^14 Hertz
