Question #95800

What is the wavelength of a photon with a frequency of 6.85 ✕ 1016 s-1?

Expert's answer

λ=cν\lambda = \frac{c}{\nu}

where λ\lambda - wavelength of photon, mm ,

cc - speed of light, c3108  ms1c \approx 3 \cdot 10^{8} \; m \cdot s^{-1},

ν\nu - frequency of photon, s1s^{-1}.

λ=31086.8510164.38109  m=4.38  nm\lambda = \frac{3 \cdot 10^{8}}{6.85 \cdot 10^{16}} \approx 4.38 \cdot 10^{-9} \; m = 4.38 \; nm


Answer: 4.38 nm.
