Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The frequency of X-rays can be calculated using the formula $f = \frac{c}{\lambda}$, where $c$ is the speed of light ($3 \times 10^8$ m/s) and $\lambda$ is the wavelength (1 Å = $10^{-10}$ m). Substituting the values, $f = \frac{3 \times 10^8}{10^{-10}} = 3 \times 10^{18}$ Hz.
