The wavelength of the light ray with the given frequency is 4.05 × 10⁴nm.

Given the data in the question;

  • Frequency of the light ray; [tex]f = 7.4 * 10^{12}Hz[/tex]
  • Wavelength; [tex]\lambda = \ ?[/tex]

Wavelength

Wavelength can be simply defined as the spatial period of a periodic wave. When the shapes of waves are repeated, the distance over which they are repeated is called wavelength. Wavelength is expressed as;

[tex]\lambda = \frac{c}{f}[/tex]

Where [tex]\lambda[/tex] is wavelength, f is frequency and c is speed of light( [tex]c = 3*10^8m/s[/tex] )

We substitute our values into the expression above to determine the wavelength of the light ray.

[tex]\lambda = \frac{c}{f} \\\\\lambda = \frac{3*10^8m/s}{7.4*10^{12}s^{-1}}} \\\\\lambda = \frac{3*10^8ms/s}{7.4*10^{12}}}\\\\\lambda = 4.05*10^{-5}m\\\\\lambda = 4.05*10^{4}nm[/tex]

Therefore, the wavelength of the light ray with the given frequency is 4.05 × 10⁴nm.
