Determine the wavelength, in meters, of a wave that has a frequency of 1.25 x 1020 Hz.

And what type of wave/ray is it?

Respuesta :

Answer:

Frequency of wave is given 1.25 × 10² Hz

We have been asked to determine the wavelength of that wave ( in metres) .

We Know the speed of light in air/vacuum is

c = 3 × 10 m/s

❍[tex]\\{\underline{\boxed{\green{\bf{f = \dfrac{c}{ \lambda} }}}}}[/tex]

Put the value we obtain

[tex]\sf \implies \: 1.25 \times {10}^{20} = \dfrac{3 \times {10}^{8} }{ \lambda} \\ \\ \sf \implies \lambda \: = \dfrac{3 \times {10}^{8} }{1.25 \times {10}^{20} } \\ \\ \sf \implies \lambda = \dfrac{3}{1.25 \times {10}^{12} } \\ \\ \sf\implies \lambda = 2.4 \times {10}^{ - 12} m [/tex]

So, the wavelength of the wave is 2.4 × 10¹² m

It would be Gamma Ray .
