The speed of light is 3 × 108 m/s. Calculate the frequency of red light of a wavelength of 6.5 × 10−7 m.

बेरीज

उत्तर

Given: c = 3 × 108 m/s, λ = 6.5 × 10–7 m

To find: Frequency (ν)

Formula: c = νλ

Calculation: From formula,

ν = `"c"/λ=(3xx10^8)/(6.5xx10^-7)` = 4.6 × 1014 Hz

The frequency of red light is 4.6 × 1014 Hz.
