The longest wavelength of light that can be absorbed by a particular harmonic oscillator is λ = 1000 nm. What is the second longest wavelength that can be absorbed?

Respuesta :

Answer:

500 nm.

Explanation:

The wavelength of harmonic oscillator can be calculated by the formula,

[tex]\lambda_{1} =\frac{\lambda}{n}[/tex]

Here, [tex]\lambda[/tex] is the longest wavelength, and n is the number of order.

Now given that the longest wavelength is 1000 nm.

Now calculate second longest wavelength,

[tex]\lambda_{1} =\frac{1000 nm}{2}\\\lambda_{1} =500 nm[/tex]

Therefore, the second longest wavelength is 500 nm.
