You need to know the energy frequency relationship for photons, which is thanks to Max Planck:
Photon Energy = Planck constant x Frequency
Rarranged:
Photon Energy / Planck Constant = Frequency
Planck Constant = 6.63x10^-34
2.93x10^-25 / 6.63x10^-34 = Frequency
Answer:
1) The volume occupied by an atom is composed of mainly empty space
2) Atoms have a very small, relatively dense, central nucleus that is positively charged
3) The region around the nucleus of an atom are orbited by negatively charged electrons in a the same fashion planets orbit around the Sun.
