### Question 14

**Green laser pointers emit radiation at 532 nm. What is the frequency of this radiation?**

- ○ \( 8.12 \times 10^{13} \) Hz
- ○ \( 5.64 \times 10^{14} \) Hz
- ○ \( 1.60 \times 10^{15} \) Hz
- ○ \( 9.10 \times 10^{15} \) Hz
- ○ \( 1.60 \times 10^{16} \) Hz

>This question tests the calculation of radiation frequency from a wavelength. The wavelength given for the green laser pointer radiation is 532 nm. You might need to use the formula:
>
>\[ c = \lambda \cdot \nu \]
>
>where:
>- \( c \) is the speed of light in a vacuum (\( 3 \times 10^8 \) m/s),
>- \( \lambda \) is the wavelength (in meters),
>- \( \nu \) is the frequency (in Hz).
>
>Convert the wavelength from nanometers to meters before proceeding with the calculation.
