∙ 10y agoThe speed of an electromagnetic wave can be calculated using the formula: speed = frequency x wavelength. Plugging in the values provided (7.75 x 10^16 Hz and 3.87 nm), the speed of the wave would be approximately 3.00 x 10^8 m/s, which is the speed of light in a vacuum.
Frequency of electromagnetic radiation = (speed of light) / (wavelength) Speed of light in vacuum = 300,000,000 meters/sec (rounded) Frequency = (300,000,000 meters/sec) / (5 x 10-6 cm) = (3 x 108 m/s) / (5 x 10-8 m) = 0.6 x 1016 = 6 x 1015 Hz.
You need to use the equation c= wavelength * frequency , where c is the speed of light (2.99792458 * 108 m/s) Solve the equation for frequency, frequency=c/wavelength frequency = 1.02 * 1016 s-1 or the unit could be Hz which equals 1 s-1
The wavelength of ultraviolet light is between 10 and 400 nanometers (nm).From the wavelength you can determine the frequency. If you divide the speed of light by the wavelength, you can calculate the frequency.The frequency range would be from 7.5 x 1014 Hz to 3 x 1016 Hz.
c = λν3x10^8 m/s = 310x10^-9 m (ν)ν = 9.68x10^14 Hz
Ultraviolet radiation from the sun is higher in frequency than radar waves. Radar waves have longer wavelengths and lower frequencies compared to ultraviolet radiation.
The speed of any wave is the product of the frequency and the wavelength. Be sure to convert the nm to meters first (dividing by 1,000,000,000). - By the way, in a vacuum, all electromagnetic waves travel at the same speed, known as the speed of light - about 300 million meters/second. However, in other substances - such as air, or water - electromagnetic waves are slower.
Frequency of electromagnetic radiation = (speed of light) / (wavelength) Speed of light in vacuum = 300,000,000 meters/sec (rounded) Frequency = (300,000,000 meters/sec) / (5 x 10-6 cm) = (3 x 108 m/s) / (5 x 10-8 m) = 0.6 x 1016 = 6 x 1015 Hz.
The speed is equal to the product of the frequency and the wavelength. First convert the wavelength to meters, so as to have compatible units.The speed of an electromagnetic wave in a vacuum is ALWAYS the same - around 300 million meters/second. If you get any result, something is wrong - unless the wave travels through some other medium, in which case its speed can be less than the speed of light in a vacuum.
You need to use the equation c= wavelength * frequency , where c is the speed of light (2.99792458 * 108 m/s) Solve the equation for frequency, frequency=c/wavelength frequency = 1.02 * 1016 s-1 or the unit could be Hz which equals 1 s-1
The energy of a wave is given by E = h*f, where h is Planck's constant (approx. 6.63 x 10^-34 Joule seconds). So, the energy of a wave with frequency 3.6 x 10^16 Hz is approximately 2.38 x 10^-17 Joules. The wavelength can be calculated using the formula λ = c/f, where c is the speed of light (approx. 3 x 10^8 m/s), giving a wavelength of approximately 8.33 x 10^-9 meters. This falls into the ultraviolet range, which is not typically used in nuclear medicine procedures.
The wavelength of ultraviolet light is between 10 and 400 nanometers (nm).From the wavelength you can determine the frequency. If you divide the speed of light by the wavelength, you can calculate the frequency.The frequency range would be from 7.5 x 1014 Hz to 3 x 1016 Hz.
c = λν3x10^8 m/s = 310x10^-9 m (ν)ν = 9.68x10^14 Hz
