Question

What is the frequency of a light that has a wavelength of 3.0 x 10 -7m?

Answer 1

Answer:

 frequency of light (f) = 1 x 10¹⁵s⁻¹

Explanation:

Given Data:

Wavelength of light λ = 3.0 x10⁻⁷m

Frequency of light: to be calculated

Formula Used to find frequency:

                                  f = V/λ ........................... (1)

where

f is the frequency

V is the velocity

λ is wavelength

Velocity of light = 3 x 10⁸ ms⁻¹

put the values in equation (1)

                                     f =  3 x 10⁸ ms⁻¹ / 3.0 x10⁻⁷m

                                     f = 1 x 10¹⁵s⁻¹

   So the frequency of light =  1 x 10¹⁵s⁻¹
