QUESTION 8
Consider light having a wavelength of 521 nm traveling in a vacuum. Which of the following is true?
w = 1.56x102 rad/s
w = 5.74x105 rad/s
O k = 3.27x10-6 rad-m
O k = 1.21x107 rad/m
Find the range in wavelengths (in vacuum) for visible light in the frequency range between 4x1014 Hz (red light) and 7.9 x1014 Hz (violet light). Express the answers in nanometer. (1 nm = 10-9m)
