Respuesta :

5.77 ×[tex]10^1^4[/tex] Hz is the green photon's frequency .

The distance between similar points (adjacent crests) in adjacent cycles of a waveform signal that is propagated in space is known as the wavelength. A wave's wavelength is often measured in meters (m), centimeters (cm), or millimeters (mm) (mm). The relationship between frequency and wavelength is inverse.

Given:

Wavelength of green light = 520 nm

f = c / λ

where, f = Frequency

            c = Speed of light = 3 × [tex]10^8[/tex] m/s

            λ = Wavelength of light

∴ f = c / λ

  f = [tex]\frac{3*10^8}{520 * 10^-^9}[/tex]

    = 5.77 ×[tex]10^1^4[/tex] Hz

Therefore,  5.77 ×[tex]10^1^4[/tex] Hz is the green photon's frequency .
