What is the frequency of a photon with a wavelength of 1040 nm. Report your answers to three significant digits. The frequency is = _________ s-1

Respuesta :

Answer:

[tex]Frequency=2.88\times 10^{14}\ s^{-1}[/tex]

Explanation:

The relation between frequency and wavelength is shown below as:

[tex]c=frequency\times Wavelength [/tex]

c is the speed of light having value [tex]3\times 10^8\ m/s[/tex]

Given, Wavelength = 1040 nm

Also, 1 m = [tex]10^{-9}[/tex] nm

So,  

Wavelength = [tex]1040\times 10^{-9}[/tex] m

Thus, Frequency is:

[tex]Frequency=\frac{c}{Wavelength}[/tex]

[tex]Frequency=\frac{3\times 10^8}{1040\times 10^{-9}}\ s^{-1}[/tex]

[tex]Frequency=2.88\times 10^{14}\ s^{-1}[/tex]
