Question

A light wave has a wavelength of 450 nanometers. What is the frequency of this light?

Answer 1

Answer:

Frequency, $f=6.67\times 10^{14}\ Hz$

Explanation:

Wavelength of a light wave is 450 nm. It is required to find the frequency of this light wave. The speed of light is given by c. So,

$c=f\lambda$

f is the frequency of this light

$f=\dfrac{c}{\lambda}\\\\f=\dfrac{3\times 10^8}{450\times 10^{-9}}\\\\f=6.67\times 10^{14}\ Hz$

So, the frequency of this light is $6.67\times 10^{14}\ Hz$.
