650 nm= .00000065 m 2m - .00000065m= the water wave is ~1.99999935 meters larger than the red light wave

∙ 7y agoAssuming you want the ratio:The prefix "nano" means ten to the power -9, so you need to divide 2 by (650 x 10 to the power -9). In Excel, you can use this formula:
=2/650e-9

What units is wavelength measured in usually?
Answer - meters or derivations of meters e.g micrometers, nanometers etc
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 wavelenght of 255 nm in meters?
255 nanometers is 0.000000255m
What is the wavelength in nm of a photon whose energy is 4.7 x 10-14 J?
First get the wavelength in meters by multiplying Plancks constant (in units of J-sec) times the speed of light (in m/sec) and divided by the energy. Then change to nanometers by multiplying by 1 billion.
How many nanometers are in 1 meter?
1 nanometer = 1.0 × 10-9 meters
What is wavelength of 518 nanometers?
The wavelength IS 518 nanometers.... but in meters, it is expressed as 5.18 x 10-7 m. when you multiply by the conversion factor of 10-9

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.
What is the Dimension of Wavelength?
The give-away should be the word "length" which is hidden in the word "wavelength". Wavelength has the dimensions of length, and is most often stated in meters or centimeters (radio), nanometers (light), etc.
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
How many meters long is a wavelength that measures 102m?
Almost exactly 102
How many nanometers are in 0.3 meters?
0.3 meters=300,000,000 nanometers
How many nanometers are in 2 meters?
2 meters = 2,000,000,000 nanometers
How many meters is 150 nanometers?
To convert from nanometers to meters, divide by 1,000,000,000.
How many nanometers is .125 meters?
To convert meters to nanometers, multiply by a billion.
What is wavelength nm?
Wavelength is the distance between repeating units of a propagating wave of a given frequency. For light waves, this value is often given in nanometers, abbreviated as "nm". A nanometer is 0.000000001 meters.
