(a) 5.45 \cdot 10^{14} Hz

The relationship between frequency and wavelength of an electromagnetic wave is given by

c=f \lambda

where

c=3.00 \cdot 10^8 m/s is the speed of light

f is the frequency

\lambda is the wavelength

In this problem, we are considering light with wavelength of

\lambda=5.50 \cdot 10^{-7} m

Substituting into the equation and re-arranging it, we can find the corresponding frequency:

f=\frac{c}{\lambda}=\frac{3.00 \cdot 10^8 m/s}{5.50 \cdot 10^{-7} m}=5.45 \cdot 10^{14} Hz

(b) 1.83\cdot 10^{-15} s

The period of a wave is equal to the reciprocal of the frequency:

T=\frac{1}{f}

And using f=5.45 \cdot 10^{14} Hz as we found in the previous part, we can find the period of this wave:

T=\frac{1}{5.45 \cdot 10^{14} Hz}=1.83\cdot 10^{-15} s

Strike441 [17]

Answer:

E=3.5(8.98*10^{6}x-2.69*10^{15}t)

B=1.17*10^{-8}(8.98*10^{6}x-2.69*10^{15}t)

Explanation:

The electric field equation of a electromagnetic wave is given by:

E=E_{max}(kx-\omega t) (1)

  • E(max) is the maximun value of E, it means the amplitude of the wave.
  • k is the wave number
  • ω is the angular frequency

We know that the wave length is λ = 700 nm and the peak electric field magnitude of 3.5 V/m, this value is correspond a E(max).

By definition:

k=\frac{2\pi}{\lambda}            

k=8.98*10^{6} [rad/m]      

And the relation between λ and f is:                

c=\lambda f

f=\frac{c}{\lambda}

f=\frac{3*10^{8}}{700*10^{-9}}

f=4.28*10^{14}

The angular frequency equation is:

\omega=2\pi f

\omega=2\pi*4.28*10^{14}

\omega=2.69*10^{15} [rad/s]

Therefore, the E equation, suing (1), will be:

E=3.5(8.98*10^{6}x-2.69*10^{15}t) (2)

For the magnetic field we have the next equation:

B=B_{max}(kx-\omega t) (3)

It is the same as E. Here we just need to find B(max).

We can use this equation:

E_{max}=cB_{max}

B_{max}=\frac{E_{max}}{c}=\frac{3.5}{3*10^{8}}

B_{max}=1.17*10^{-8}T

Putting this in (3), finally we will have:

B=1.17*10^{-8}(8.98*10^{6}x-2.69*10^{15}t) (4)

I hope it helps you!
