Calculate the frequency of yellow light of wavelength 550 nm. The speed of light is 3 × 10⁸ m s^-1

Best Answer

Given,

Wavelength λ = 550 nm

= 550 × 10^-9 m

Speed of light, C = 3 × 10⁸ m / s

We know that

Frequency = Speed of light / Wavelength

Frequency = (3 × 10⁸) / (550 × 10^-9)

Frequency = 5.4 × 10¹⁴ Hz
