A visible violet light emits light with a wavelength of 4.00 × 10-7 m. Calculate the frequency of the violet light.

A)6.30 × 10 -1 Hz
B)7.50 × 10 14 Hz
C)6.30 × 10 24 Hz
D)7.50 × 10 1 Hz

The correct option is B. 7.5 * 10¹⁴ Hz

Explanation:

Frequency = (speed) / (wavelength)

= (3 x 10⁸ m/s) / (4 x 10⁻⁷ m)

= (3/4 x 10¹⁵) ( m / m - s )

= (0.75 x 10¹⁵) /sec

= 7.5 x 10¹⁴ Hz

= 750,000 GHz

b. false

explanation:

suppose a rock in free fall is dropped off a cliff. after falling for 5 seconds, its speed would not be 100 m/s.
