electromagnetic radiation?
O 1.8 x 10-65-1
O 5.6 x 1014 5-1
O 1.6 x 1011 51
O 1.8 x 10-155-1
O 5.6 x 10551

Respuesta :

Answer:

5.6 x 10¹⁴m

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Wavelength  = 5.4 x 10⁻⁷m

Unknown:

Frequency of the electromagnetic radiation = ?

Solution:

The speed of all electromagnetic radiation is given as 3.0 x 10⁸m/s

  So;

         Speed = frequency x wavelength

  Wavelength = [tex]\frac{speed}{frequency}[/tex]

 Insert the parameters and solve;

   Wavelength = [tex]\frac{3 x 10^{8} }{5.4 x 10^{-7} }[/tex]  

  Wavelength  = [tex]\frac{3}{5.4}[/tex]  x 10⁸⁻⁽⁻⁷⁾

  Wavelength  = 5.6 x 10⁻¹ x 10¹⁵

   Wavelength  = 5.6 x 10¹⁴m
