In a vacuum a certain wave of light has a wavelength of 400 nanometers What is the wave's frequency?
The equation needed is: V=fl Where V is the speed, f is the frequency and l is the wavelength. (the poxy thing won't let me enter a lamba sign) The key bit of information is "in a vacuum"; all waves in a vacuum travel at the same speed, 3x108ms-1. This is more commenly refered to as the speed of light, C. Therefore, f = V / l= C / l = 3x108 / 400x10-9 = 7.5x1014 Hz (Not in standard form that's: 750,000,000,000,000 Hz) (The '/' means divided by)

What is the frequency of 6.9810214 Hertz in nanometers?
Frequency is inversely proportionate to wavelength. That is, f = 1/(lamda) You have frequency, 6.9810214 Hz You want 'lamda'. Re-arranging, you get lamda = 1/f = 1/6.9810214Hz = 0.1432m Then you just need to convert that in to nm, note 1nm = 1*10-9m So (0.1432/10-9) nm
Why is wavelength all you need to know to calculate EM wave frequency in a vacuum?
Frequency and wavelength are inversely proportional in a vacuum, following the equation speed = frequency x wavelength. Since the speed of light in a vacuum is constant, knowing the wavelength allows you to determine the frequency of an electromagnetic wave.
What is the frequency of a blue light with a wave length of 469 nanometers?
Frequency is in cycles per unit time Wavelength is in length per cycle To convert between the two you need the speed of the wave - which for light is the speed of light - which is given in length per unit time Frequency = Speed of light/Wavelength For a wavelength of 469 nanometers Frequency is 639 Terahertz (THz) or 639,000 Gigahertz (GHz) ... rounded to 3 significant digits since the wavelength is only given to 3 significant digits
What is the wavelength of 1.010 to the fifteenth power?
That number has no units, and just-plain-numbers don't have wavelengths. If you mean that number to have the unit of "Hertz", and to be a frequency of, say, an electromagnetic wave in vacuum, then it's wavelength would be 296.8 nanometers ... an ultraviolet wave.
The higher an electromagnetic wave frequency the lower its?
wavelength. This is because frequency and wavelength have an inverse relationship, meaning as frequency increases, wavelength decreases. This relationship is described by the equation speed = frequency x wavelength, where speed is the speed of light in a vacuum.
Are wavelength and frequency inversely proportional?
Yes, wavelength and frequency are inversely proportional in a vacuum. This means that as wavelength increases, frequency decreases, and vice versa. This relationship is governed by the equation: speed of light = wavelength x frequency.
