Question on: JAMB Physics - 2009

If a light wave has a wavelength of 500nm in air what is the frequency of the wave?

[c = 3 x 108 ms-1]

A
3.0 x 1014 Hz
B
6.0 x 1014 Hz
C
6.0 x 1012 Hz
D
2.5 x 1014 Hz
Ask EduPadi AI for a detailed answer
Correct Option: B

f = c/λ

∴ f = c = 3 x 108
λ500 x 109

=6.0 x 1014 Hz
