The human eye is sensitive to light with wavelength down to 390 nm.What is the frequency of radiation at this wavelength? (1 nm = 10^-9 m and c = 3.00 x 10⁸ m/s) A)1.8 x 10⁸ Hz B)8.5 x 10⁸ Hz C)1.1 x 10¹¹ Hz D)7.7 x 10¹⁴ Hz

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The frequency of radiation is given by the equation f = c/λ, where f is the frequency, c is the speed of light, and λ is the wavelength. Substituting the given values into the equation, we get:f = c/λ = (3.00 x 10^8 m/s) / (390 x 10^-9 m) = 1.1 x 10^11 Hz
