1. Frequency: 7.06\cdot 10^{14} Hz

The frequency of a light wave is given by:

f=\frac{c}{\lambda}

where

c=3\cdot 10^{-8} m/s is the speed of light

\lambda is the wavelength of the wave

In this problem, we have light with wavelength

\lambda=425 nm=425\cdot 10^{-9} m

Substituting into the equation, we find the frequency:

f=\frac{c}{\lambda}=\frac{3\cdot 10^{-8} m/s}{425\cdot 10^{-9} m}=7.06\cdot 10^{14} Hz


2. Period: 1.42 \cdot 10^{-15}s

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

T=\frac{1}{f}

The frequency of this light wave is 7.06\cdot 10^{14} Hz (found in the previous exercise), so the period is:

T=\frac{1}{f}=\frac{1}{7.06\cdot 10^{14} Hz}=1.42\cdot 10^{-15} s

ANSWER:

frequency = 7.058*10^14 Hz

time period = 1.41*10^-15 s

EXPLANATION:

by formula

f = c / λ

c is constant which is = 3 * 10^8

λ is given = 425 * 10^-9 m

f= 3* 10^8 / 425 * 10^-9

f = 7.058*10^14 Hz

T= 1/f

T = 1 / 705882.3529

T= 1.41*10^ -15 s
