Assume that the question is referring to electromagnetic radiation, traveling in vacuum.
Speed = 3 x 108 meters/sec
Frequency = (speed) / (wavelength) = (3 x 108) / (1,150 x 10-9) = 2.6087 x 1014 Hz
= 2.609 x 105 GHz (rounded)

What is the fraction of 1150?
1150, as a fraction is 1150/1.It is 1150/1.
What type of radiation causes sun burn?
UV, or "ultraviolet" radiation from the Sun. UV radiation has a higher frequency and shorter wavelength than visible light does, and carries more energy.
What are 3 forms of Electromagnetic Radiation with a wavelength less than visible light?
The wavelength of electromagnetic radiation is a measure of the frequency; multiply the frequency times the wavelength, and the answer is ALWAYS the "Speed of Light", which we abbreviate as "c". All of these are different "bands" of electromagnetic energy. Radio is the longest wavelength and lowest frequency. "Low Frequency" is the lowest, followed by "high frequency", "very high frequency" or VHF, "ultra-high frequency" or UHF. Beyond that are microwaves, and then heat, then "infrared", and then visible light. Higher frequency (and shorter wavelengths) than light are "ultra-violet", then X-rays, and then "gamma rays".
What is the name for the change in the star's spectrum when it moves away from earth?
That is called "redshift". The frequency of the radiation decreases.
How do you set up the equation for a FM radio has a frequency of 88.9 Mhz determine the wavelength in nanometers?
To determine the wavelenght of a signal, invert it. This would take 88.9 MHz, invert it (1/88.9) giving you 0.01125 microseconds. Now, determine the speed of the signal. Generally, for an FM radio signal, the speed is the speed of light, which is 3 x 108 meters per second. So multiply 0.01125 by 3 x 108, giving 3.75 meters. The question asked for nanometers, so multiply by 1 x 109, giving 3.75 x 109 nanometers for a signal frequency of 88.9 MHz.
How many meters in 1150 nanometers?
1,150 nanometers=1.15 × 10^-6 meters
Do am radio waves have a lower frequency then ultra violet radiation?
Radio waves and ultraviolet waves are the same physical phenomenon.The difference is that radio waves have a much greater wavelength.(That's equivalent to saying that they have a much lower frequency.)
What is the wave frequency for 400 nanometers?
7.5*
What is the Frequence of 588 nanometers?
This frequency is 509,85 THz.
What is the frequency for ultraviolet waves?
Ultraviolet radiation has a wavelength between 10 and 400 nanometers. The shorter the wavelength, the more energy each photon contains. To find the frequency, divide the speed of light (299,792,458 metets per second) by the wavelength.
Is frequency related to radiation?
yes frequency = 1/radiation
What is the wavelenght of ultraviolet radiation?
Between 100 and 370 nanometers
What energy is visable to the eye?
electromagnetic radiation with wavelengths ranging from about 380 nanometers to about 750 nanometers (a.k.a. visible light)
What types of radiation has the highest frequency?
In the electromagnetic spectrum Gamma radiation has the highest frequency.
What is the frequency of a wave with a wavelength of 500 nanometers?
C/lamba = 5.99584916e14 Hz
What the frequency of green light in nanometers?
Green light: 495-570 nm
How are the words frequency and electomagnetic radiation related?
Electromagnetic radiation E= hf is characterized by its frequency, f.
