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
What is the ratio in frequency of violet light (400 nm) to red light (750 nm)? fv is frequency of violet light, fr is the frequency of red light
fr = 1.875 fv
fr = 0.533 fv
fr = 3.238 fv
fr = 0.324 fv
1- 500 nm= mm
2-35nm-km
3- 25 GHz- KHz
4- 300nm- m
5-20 Mm-m
6-8.5 m/sec=km/h
7-15Gm=mm
8-450 nm-Mm
9-25 Km-fm
10-45 Gm=Mm
11-30 pm=Mm
