A photon of green light has a wavelength of 520 nm. Find the photon's frequency, magnitude of momentum, and energy. Express the energy in both joules (J) and electron volts (eV).
Just like the optical part of the spectrum, radio waves can be described in terms of photons - although they can be very difficult to detect. Consider the photons in radio waves from an FM station that has a 88.5-MHz broadcast frequency. A.   Find the energy, in joules, of a photon in the radio waves.  B.  Find the energy, in electron volts, of a photon in the radio waves.
Suppose a photon has a momentum of 5.4 × 10-29 kg⋅m/s. A. What is the wavelength of such a photon in micrometers?  B. Find its energy in electron volts.
