2. What is the wavelength of & ray having a frequency of 5.68 a x 1017 Hz?​

Sagot :

[tex]\tt{\huge{\blue{Explanation:}}}[/tex]

The wavelength of an electromagnetic (EM) wave is given by

[tex]\boxed{\lambda = \frac{c}{f}}[/tex]

where:

λ = wavelength

c = speed of light in vacuum = 3 × 10⁸ m/s

f = frequency

[tex]\tt{\huge{\red{Solution:}}}[/tex]

Solving for the wavelength

[tex]\lambda = \dfrac{c}{f}[/tex]

[tex]\lambda = \dfrac{3 \times 10^8 \: \text{m/s}}{5.68 \times 10^{17} \: \text{Hz}}[/tex]

[tex]\lambda = \dfrac{3 \times 10^8 \: \text{m/s}}{5.68 \times 10^{17} \: \text{s}^{-1}}[/tex]

[tex]\boxed{\lambda = 5.28 \times 10^{-10} \: \text{m}}[/tex]

Therefore, the wavelength is 5.28 × 10⁻¹⁰ m.
