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 frequency ranges of the radiation curve do red green and blue light occupy?

Red, Blue and Green light occupy a very narrow, but unbroken, part of the full range of electromagnetic radiation curve


What is the wavelength of blue light with a frequency of 6.82x1014 Hertz?

Wavelength is speed, of light, in this case, divided by frequency. 3 x 108 meters per second divided by 6.82 x 1014 Hertz is 0.4 micrometers.


Does yellow light have more energy than green light?

Yes. Blue light has a lower wavelength than yellow light, which is why it is perceived by out eyes as a different color. Blue light's wavelength is around 450 nanometers and yellow light's wavelength is around 575 nanometers. since the speed of light is constant for all light, and frequency is the speed of light over the wavelength of the light, the larger the wavelength, the lower the frequency. And the lower the frequency, the lower the energy. So the shorter wavelength of light (in this case, blue colored light) has a faster frequency, and therefore more energy.


Which color of visible light has the highest frequency?

blueee!!


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.


In the light spectrum are red waves shorter than blue waves?

Red light waves are almost double the length of blue or violet light waves. Wavelength is inversely proportional to frequency; red light has a higher frequency than blue light.


What is the difference between high engery light like UV and low energy light like red light?

The frequency of Ultra violet is about twice as high as infrared light. 400 nanometers to 800 nanometers. The quantum side says they are packets of energy and blue packs a bigger wallop than red.


Which has a lower frequency yellow light or blue light?

Blue light has a higher frequency compared to yellow light.

What color is the light spectrum with a wavelength of 450 to 420 nanometers?

The light spectrum with a wavelength of 450 to 420 nanometers falls within the blue-violet region. Colors in this range appear as varying shades of blue and violet.


Does blue or red have the longest wavelength?

Red light has a longer wavelength than blue light. In the visible light spectrum, red light has wavelengths between approximately 620-750 nanometers, while blue light has wavelengths between approximately 450-495 nanometers.
