Calculating Wavelength From Frequency

Mark

The table below lists the frequencies for several types of electromagnetic radiation.

Radiation	Frequency ( $\text{s}^{-1}$ )
UV	$8.0 \times 10^{14}$
Visible	$5.5 \times 10^{14}$
IR	$3.0 \times 10^{14}$
X-ray	$1.0 \times 10^{18}$

Using the data provided, determine the wavelength of the ultraviolet (UV) radiation. (The speed of light, $c$ , is $3.00 \times 10^{8}\,\text{m/s}$ .)

$1.5 \times 10^{-7}\,m$

$2.67 \times 10^{-7}\,m$

$3.75 \times 10^{-7}\,m$

$3.75 \times 10^{-6}\,m$
