Calculate the wavelength of electromagnetic wave having frequency `5 xx 10^(16)` Hz in free space.

Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To calculate the wavelength of an electromagnetic wave with a given frequency, we can use the formula that relates the speed of light (c), frequency (ν), and wavelength (λ): \[ c = ν \cdot λ \] Where: - \( c \) is the speed of light in a vacuum, approximately \( 3 \times 10^8 \) meters per second. - \( ν \) is the frequency of the wave. - \( λ \) is the wavelength of the wave. ...
