1. Light is a wave that travels at the speed of light=c=2.998 X 10 m/s in vacuum. c=fa, where f= frequency (Hz) and 2 = wavelength (m). With light, we usually use the distance measurement of nanometer, where 1.0 X 10 nanometer = 1,00 m. 1 nm = 1 nanometer. a) 2 = 550 nm. Convert to meters. b) 2 = 6.33 X 10 -7 m. Convert to nm c) Calculate the frequency of the wave using the wavelength from part a d) The wavelength upper limit on visible light is around 720 nm. To what frequency does this correspond? e) The wavelength lower limit on visible light is around 400 nm. To what frequency does this correspond? f) The power source of your microwave oven produces waves with a frequency of 2.45 MegaHz, where Mega is short for one million. What is the wavelength of these waves?
