What is the wavelength of an X-ray with a frequency of 8.0 x 10 power 18 Hz?
If you divide the speed of light (in meters/second) by the frequency (in Hz), you get the wavelength (in meters).
What is the frequency of light in fused quartz if the wavelength in vacuum is 500nm?
Divide the speed of light in a vacuum (in meters/second) by the wavelength (which you must convert to meters); that will give you the frequency in hertz. The frequency will be the same for different substances.
What does a spectrometer measure?
A spectrometer measures properties of light of a specific part of the wavelength. It is often used to measure the intensity of a light.
If you have a frequency of 670 what is it wavelength?
Depends on what the speed of the wave is. The wavelength is equal to the speed of the wave divided by its frequency. For light in a vaccum, for instance, the speed is c, or about 3.00 x 10e8 meters/second. If the frequency was in Hertz (cycles/second), then the wavelength would be 448,000 meters. So, this probably is a light frequency. If it were the sound at sea level, the speed is 340 meters/second, so the resulting wavelength would be 0.507 meters. The sound would be nearly an "E".
What is the frequency of light whose wavelength is 633 mm?
Speed (of a wave) = frequency x wavelengthTherefore, you have to: * Convert the wavelength to meters. * Divide the speed of light - which is 300 million meters/second - by this wavelength. The answer will be in Hz.
The wavelength of red light from 760nm in meters?
If a wavelength of light emitted from a particular red diode laser is 651 nm, its wavelength would be equivalent to 0.000000651 meters.
What are applications of spectrophotometery?
spectrophotometer, an instrument that measures the wavelength of light.
If blue light has a frequency of 6.98 10 14 hertz what is the wavelength in nanometers?
Just divide the speed of light (in meters/second) by the frequency (in hertz) - that will give you the wavelength (in meters). You can then convert that to nm.
How do you convert frequency from meters to megahertz?
"Meters" is not frequency. It's wavelength. If you know the wavelength in meters, divide 300 by it, and the result is the frequency in MHz. If you know the frequency in MHz, divide 300 by it, and the result is the wavelength in meters.
What is the wavelength of an X-ray with a frequency of 8.0 x 10 power 18 Hz?
If you divide the speed of light (in meters/second) by the frequency (in Hz), you get the wavelength (in meters).

Is wavelength measured in hertz or meters?
Usually, no. The wavelength of visible light is usually measured in nanometers. Only larger forms of electromagnetic radiation, like radio waves, are measured in meters.
What is the frequency of light in fused quartz if the wavelength in vacuum is 500nm?
Divide the speed of light in a vacuum (in meters/second) by the wavelength (which you must convert to meters); that will give you the frequency in hertz. The frequency will be the same for different substances.
What is frequency of red light with wavelength of 690 nanometers?
speed of light in meters per second / wavelength in meters = frequency in Hz299 792 458m/s / 0.000000690m = 434481823188406Hz = 434481823188.4KHz =434481823.2MHz = 434481.8GHZ = 434.5THz

If the wavelength of a red light is 650 nanometers How much bigger is the wavelength of a water wave that measures 2 meters?
650 nm= .00000065 m 2m - .00000065m= the water wave is ~1.99999935 meters larger than the red light wave
An electromagnetic wave in a vacuum has a wavelength of 0.032 m What is its frequency?
Just divide the speed of light (300,000,000 meters/second) by the wavelength.
