anonymous · Answer

2.99792458e8/9.87e15 = 3.04e-8m

anonymous · Answer

a)3.04e-8/1000000000 = 3.04e-17nm

anonymous · Answer

Why does it ask "In meters?" wasn't it first on meters when I found the wavelength?

anonymous · Answer

yea so just put both answers

anonymous · Answer

b) The region of the electromagnetic spectrum that I would assign this is Gamma Rays D:(cookies)

anonymous · Answer

(c) What is the energy (in joules) of one quantum of this radiation?

anonymous · Answer

i think it's in between visible and ultraviolet

anonymous · Answer

e-17

anonymous · Answer

frequency of e15

anonymous · Answer

Look at the picture and look at the left, its calculated on wavelength(meters)

anonymous · Answer

uhm

anonymous · Answer

look down and you see frequency in Hz

anonymous · Answer

I know

anonymous · Answer

"A particular form of electromagnetic radiation has a frequency of 9.87e15 Hz"

anonymous · Answer

b)To what region of the electromagnetic spectrum would you assign it?

anonymous · Answer

From Visible light to Gamma Rays

anonymous · Answer

or in Between Visible Light and Gamma Rays

anonymous · Answer

i dont now?

anonymous · Answer

Well the frequency is e15 and the wavelength is e-17

anonymous · Answer

unless I did something wrong on the math
