Question

A gamma ray photon has an energy of 4.75 x 10-14 joules. What is the frequency of this radiation?

Answer 1

The frequency of the radiation is equal to $7.17 \times 10^{19}$ Hertz.

Given the following data:

• Photon energy = $4.75 \times 10^{-14}$ Joules

To find the frequency of this radiation, we would use the Planck-Einstein equation.

Mathematically, the Planck-Einstein relation is given by the formula:

$E = hf$

Where:

• h is Planck constant.

• f is photon frequency.

Substituting the given parameters into the formula, we have;

$4.75 \times 10^{-14} = 6.626 \times 10^{-34} \times F\\\\F = \frac{4.75 \times 10^{-14}}{6.626 \times 10^{-34}}$

Frequency, F = $7.17 \times 10^{19}$ Hertz
